Erigeron karvinskianus is a fast-spreading, long-blooming evergreen perennial with a mounding, trailing habit, lance-shaped green leaves, and flowers that open white, transition to pink, and mature to deep wine-purple. Uses include groundcover, rock garden, erosion control, weed suppression,  retaining wall, border, container. Excellent in seaside landscapes. Self-seeds. Best in full sun but tolerates partial shade (blooms less in shade). It prefers well-draining, average garden soil but adapts to poor, rocky, or shallow soil conditions. Requires good drainage. It has low water requirements once established. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Cold hardy to 20°F.
