Additionally, does thrift bloom all summer? Armeria maritima (Sea Thrift) is a compact, evergreen perennial boasting round clusters of pink to lavender (or sometimes white) flowers borne atop slender stalks that rise well above the foliage. Blooming profusely in mid to late spring, sporadic additional flowering may occur throughout the summer.
Also know, should I deadhead thrift?

How do you transplant thrift?
Transplant thrift plants in early spring or early autumn, spacing small varieties 6 inches apart and larger ones 1 foot apart. They relish full sun exposure and require very well-drained, sandy or gravelly infertile soils with a pH reading between 5.5 and 7.5.
