A popular annual plant, especially recommended for rock gardens.
Small, violet flowers in shades, very densely placed on the shoots. Used for rockeries, borders.
Sweet alyssum is drought tolerant and adapted to seaside conditions, so it does well in sandy or gravelly soils and full sun. It often self-sows, but gently. Popular as a bedding and container plant, it may also be used in rock gardens or along walkways where its strong, sweet fragrance may be easily enjoyed. It grows and flowers well in cool sunny indoor locations. Cut back spent flower stems to encourage additional flushes of bloom. Plants are propagated by seed and bloom about 8 weeks after sowing.

GERMINATION INSTRUCTIONS
Best to sow from April to May inside or outside immediately after the last frost.
1. Turn small containers, such as clean, empty yogurt cups or sour cream containers, upside down. Poke three to five holes in the bottom of each for water drainage.
2. Fill the small containers with potting soil.
3. Spray water onto the top of the soil. Spray enough to moisten the soil, but not enough to make it muddy. Stir the soil, with the nail or a pencil, to distribute the moisture.
4. Scatter three to four seeds on top of the soil in each container. The seeds don't need much soil covering them. Just sprinkle enough potting soil over the seeds to cover them.
5. Place the containers on a tray. Lightly cover all of the containers with a sheet of plastic wrap. This keeps moisture and warmth in the soil, which allows the sweet alyssum seeds to germinate.
6. Place the tray in a sunny window.
7. Remove the plastic wrap and spray water onto the soil each day. Again, make sure to spray just enough to moisten the soil. Replace the plastic wrap.
