Sweet Alyssum
Lobularia maritima (Brassicaceae)
A hardy annual native to Southern Europe, but has naturalized throughout the United States. Dense clusters of tiny snow-white flowers bloom continuously throughout the growing season if the spent blossoms are trimmed back. A compact, rapid growing variety which is drought tolerant and heat resistant. Thrives in full sun to partial shade, in almost any soil. Best sown in early spring, seedlings cannot withstand a heavy frost. A seemingly endless parade of blooms.For more information see this page: Sweet Alyssum
Today's designs are inspired by these pretty little flowers in my backyard. They are hearty and will grow almost anywhere.
