Growing Information
Growing Carpet of Snow Alyssum
‘Carpet of Snow’ is a charming alyssum prized for its low-growing habit, fragrant white flowers, and profuse blooming. Compact plants spread into a soft carpet of delicate blooms, creating an elegant edging while filling the garden with a sweet fragrance that also attracts pollinators.
Plant ‘Carpet of Snow’ seeds about ⅛ inch deep and space plants 6 to 10 inches apart. Grow in full sun to partial shade. Germination typically takes 5 to 14 days. This compact variety is well suited to containers and smaller gardens and is also noted for good disease resistance.
Ready to bloom in about 60 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. The abundant blooms create a soft, continuous-looking blanket of white throughout their flowering period.
Fragrant, compact, and graceful, ‘Carpet of Snow’ is an excellent choice for ornamental beds, borders, edging, containers, smaller gardens, and pollinator-friendly plantings.
