Iberis umbellata
This selection is about 20 cm high and blooms in various shades of purple from June to August. It grows well in flower beds and edges of the garden. Bees love Iberis which attract pollinators to the garden.
Growing instructions
Sow from March to April in seedling trays. Alternatively, sow directly to a sunny to partially shaded spot in the field. Iberis sows itself and will last several years in the garden on its own.
