Sweet Alyssum, very easy to grow and a member of the mustard family, is a delicate carpet of tiny flowers with a subtle, sweet scent. The low-growing foliage is covered by flowers for much of the growing season. It is a cool season flower that can be set out in early spring and will grow throughout the fall and winter if there is not a freeze. The blooms come in pink, salmon, purple, white and yellow and can be encouraged to re bloom by cutting back spent flowers.
Sweet alyssum plants require little maintenance. They love the full sun but do not like prolonged dry periods. In warmer regions, a slightly shaded area works best for this plant. During hot and dry weather, sweet alyssum will need extra water. Insure the water drains well otherwise it is susceptible to rot.
