The rock roses are excellent and easy plants for a sunny place in a rock garden or raised bed. There are many different bright colours of flowers, and some have greyish leaves.
Helianthemum 'Cerise Queen' is a double-flowered form with very bright pink flowers (one hesitates to say lurid), with yellowy-orange centres, over rich green, narrow leaves.
