Carpet of Snow Sweet Alyssum delivers a dense, shimmering blanket of tiny white blooms that brings elegant texture and fragrance to any garden. This variety matures in just 56–63 days and forms compact 4–6" mounds that are ideal for edging paths, filling containers, or naturalizing open spaces. Its vigorous growth, long flowering window, and ability to attract pollinators make it a dependable choice for gardeners seeking beauty with very little maintenance.

We ship to the Continental U.S. and Alaska only. We cannot ship to Hawaii, overseas U.S. military bases, or U.S. territories.

Growing Information

Planting

  • Sow seeds directly outdoors after frost, as Alyssum germinates quickly in warming soil.
  • Press seeds lightly into the surface without covering them, since light aids in germination.
  • Space plantings to allow each mound to mature to its 4–6" height and width.
  • Seeds germinate best in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade conditions.
  • Expect flowering to begin about 56–63 days after sowing, producing a continuous carpet of white blooms.
  • For containers or edging, broadcast seeds more densely to create a fuller, unified display.

Maintenance

  • Carpet of Snow Sweet Alyssum stays compact, requiring little shaping or pruning.
  • Water consistently during the first few weeks, then only as needed once plants are established.
  • Removing spent blooms helps maintain dense flowering throughout the season.
  • Alyssum tolerates light foot traffic and cooler temperatures, making it a durable border plant.
  • Fertilizer is rarely necessary, especially in moderately fertile soil.
