Sweet Alyssum, Dwarf Pink ,Wildflower Seeds

Lobularia maritima 'Dwarf Pink' is a fragrant, low-growing alyssum that forms a dense, spreading carpet of pink blooms reaching just 2–4 inches tall with a spread of up to 12 inches per plant. A favorite of gardeners for its masses of honey-scented flowers, its adaptability to almost any well-drained soil, and its dual identity as both a refined garden edging plant and a vigorous wildflower. It blooms continuously throughout the growing season with regular deadheading, thrives in full sun or partial shade, and tolerates drought and heat once established. Deer resistant and a magnet for pollinators.

Site & soil: Full sun to partial shade; well-drained soil, pH 6.0–6.5. Adapts to poor, sandy, and rocky soils. Drought tolerant once established.
