White Alyssum
Introducing Platt Hill Nursery’s White Alyssum, a beautiful, fragrant annual that provides a delicate addition to any garden or outdoor space. This vigorous and semi-trailing variety is heat tolerant and brings a unique texture to the landscape, making it perfect for mixed containers, hanging baskets, and more. With its clusters of small, white star-shaped flowers and chartreuse eyes, it creates a stunning display from mid spring to mid fall. Plus, its easy maintenance requirement means that occasional pruning is all you need to do to keep it looking its best. Not to mention, it’s a great choice for attracting bees and butterflies, while remaining unappealing to deer. Bring home White Alyssum today and watch your garden blossom!
