Quick facts
- Rarer perennial alyssum
- Spectacular golden color
- Early season blooming
Uncommon beautiful perennial alyssum flowers early in April and May. Golden and very attractive to bees and other beneficial insects looking for early foraging. Very drought tolerant, only requires some winter precipitation. Does well in poor soil.
We love to use it as a golden fluffy substitute for baby's breath in flower arrangements.
