Lobularia maritima Princess in Purple - Sweet Alyssum

Princess in Purple scented Alyssum, also known as Lobularia, is a vigorous annual plant with a creeping habit. Very floriferous, it produces a carpet of small flowers measuring 2 to 8 cm (1 to 3in) in diameter, arranged in fragrant clusters, from the beginning of the season. Princess in Purple is a new variety with lavender to deep purple flowers.

You can use it in hanging baskets or suspended planters.

Alyssum pairs well with white bacopas, small-flowered petunias like million bells or supertunias, as well as large double petunias, to which it will bring a sense of lightness.
