Candytuft
Sparkling white candytuft, along with its cool evergreen foliage, brightens any rock garden or wall for several weeks in spring. At bloom time plants are covered with umbels of pure white flowers that fade to pink. Compact selections are now available. Where happy, this plant will spread. Supply good drainage and cut back spent flowers to groom and keep plants neat.
