Product Description
Iberis sempervirens ‘Snow Cone Early’ forms a tidy, low-growing mound of dark green, evergreen foliage. In spring, it becomes smothered in bright white flower clusters that create a striking contrast against the foliage and help lift the garden after winter.
With its compact habit and reliable flowering, this evergreen candytuft is especially effective at the front of borders, along pathways, or cascading over walls. It also performs beautifully in containers, where its shape remains neat and controlled.
Best grown in full sun and moist but well-drained soil, this perennial is hardy, tolerant of a range of soil types, and easy to care for once established.
