Alyssum Aphrodite – Seed Packet

Lobularia maritima

Alyssum Aphrodite is a compact flowering plant perfect for borders, garden beds and containers. Flowers appear in colours including red, pink, purple, salmon and apricot featuring a light scent. Each individual plant can grow up to 8cm tall and wide, preferring a sunny or slightly shaded position and well drained soil, but will tolerate other garden soils.

Sow these Alyssum Aphrodite seeds directly into the garden and keep moist until they emerge as seedlings, then water moderately. Feed Alyssum Aphrodite with a liquid fertiliser during flowering periods to get the longest blooms, and remove any spent blooms to encourage further growth.
