FanciFillers® Silver Strand (Didelta carnosa ‘Silver Strand’)

FanciFillers® Silver Strand (Didelta carnosa ‘Silver Strand’) is a unique foliage plant prized for its soft silvery-grey leaves, trailing habit, and exceptional ability to complement colourful flowering plants. Its finely textured foliage creates a shimmering effect in containers and mixed plantings, making it a favourite choice for adding contrast, texture, and elegance to seasonal displays.

The narrow silver leaves are covered with fine hairs that give the plant its distinctive frosted appearance. The cool-toned foliage provides an excellent backdrop for vibrant annuals and pairs beautifully with purple, blue, pink, red, yellow, and white flowers. Its trailing growth habit allows stems to spill gracefully over the edges of baskets and containers, softening arrangements and creating a professional designer look.

Silver Strand is valued for its heat tolerance, drought resistance, and low-maintenance nature. It performs exceptionally well in sunny locations and continues looking fresh throughout the growing season, even during periods of summer heat. Whether used as a filler, spiller, or accent plant, it brings lasting texture and sophistication to outdoor plantings.

In Alberta, FanciFillers® Silver Strand provides reliable season-long interest and combines beautifully with both flowering annuals and tropical foliage plants.
