Iberis Snowtop

Iberis Snowtop Details

Iberis Snowtop, commonly known as the Candytuft plant, is an evergreen shrub with spectacular flowering. Fragrant, pure white flowers are produced through late winter and spring in such abundance they make the plant appear like it is covered in snow. The flowers are great for attracting birds and insects. The dark green foliage provides a nice texture and contrast to the plant. It typically grows to 40 cm tall and 60 cm wide, performing best when planted on a well-drained site in full sun, protected from wind. It is tolerant of cool climates, though young plants should be protected from frost. Iberis Snowtop is often grown as a groundcover, included in mixed and border plantings, added to cottage and “white” gardens, used to line an entranceway, or planted anywhere the fragrance can be enjoyed.
