description_en: Genus of over 100 species of annuals and herbaceous, semi-evergreen, or evergreen perennials, sometimes woody-based, some cushion- or mat-forming. They occur in alpine habitats, dry, stony slopes, or sandy steppes, usually on alkaline soils, from the E. Mediterranean to the Caucasus, C. Asia, and N.W. China. They are valued particularly for their small, 5-petalled, star-shaped to shallowly trumpet-shaped, white or pink flowers, borne singly or in spreading panicles. They have usually lance-shaped to linear-lance-shaped, glaucous leaves, borne in opposite pairs. Larger species are useful annual or border plants and provide good cut flowers. The alpine species are excellent for a raised bed, dry-stone wall, or rock garden, as well as for an alpine house or scree bed.

hardiness_en: Fully hardy to frost hardy.

cultivation_en:

propagation_en: Sow seed of annuals in situ in spring. Sow seed of perennials at 13-18°C (55-64°F) in winter, or in a cold frame in spring. Perennials may also be increased by root cuttings (species only) or by grafting (for named cultivars), both in late winter.

pests_en: Stem rots may be a problem.
