Planting Instructions
Tips
This low-growing annual produces a luscious carpet of delicate, white, fragrant, edible blossoms adored by butterflies and bees. Easy to grow and self-seeds readily. Excellent ground cover.
Direct seed outdoors in May or seed into flats 4-6 weeks before transplanting small clumps. Scatter seed on soil surface and tamp down as seed requires light to germinate. Alyssum likes full sun to partial shade, well-drained soil, and regular watering.
wonderful beneficial insect attractor
beautiful in rock walls, borders, hanging baskets and containers
flowers are edible and have a light peppery flavor
pretty accent in summer salads and soups, or frozen in ice cubes
