Sweet Alyssum
Sweet Alyssum is a fragrant, low-growing annual that produces a carpet of tiny, white, purple, or pink flowers, making it a favorite for adding a soft, delicate touch to garden borders, hanging baskets, or containers. Known for its sweet, honey-like scent, it attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, enhancing the beauty and health of your garden. Sweet Alyssum is also prized for its ability to tolerate cooler temperatures, making it an ideal plant for early spring or fall gardens. It’s easy to grow, drought-tolerant, and requires minimal care to thrive.
Planting Tips:
