Sweet Alyssum is a cool-season annual, prized for its abundant tiny blooms in shades of purple, pink and white. The sweet-smelling blooms attract pollinators, like bees and butterflies. Sweet Alyssum forms a low mat that works well along walkways, retaining walls, and garden beds. It grows easily in containers and cascades over the edges for a soft look.
