| Cultivation:
"Wonderland Deep Rose" likes full sun. Plant in light
fertile soil that is well drained. In beds space plants 8" to
12" apart. After initial flowering... lightly cut back plants
for a second showing.
Flowering may decline when temps are over 90
degrees. Most all cultivars of Alyssum grow well in
containers. Plant them around the edge of the container for a
cascading effect. Great in hanging baskets! Most cultivars of
Lobularia maritma readily re-seed themselves... appearing in the
garden again the next season.
The sweet smelling flowers of Alyssum attracts Butterflies.
Potential pests ~ diseases: Rots if kept to wet or
slugs.
