Description
Candytuft (Iberis) is a marvelous little plant that has a place in virtually any gardening situation except deep shade. There are both perennial and annual varieties of Candytuft, and all make charming additions to the garden.
Perennial Candytuft (Iberis sempervirens) is actually a hardy evergreen sub-shrub that will reliably survive all the way down to zone 3, and sends up showy blooms very early in the in the spring. Flowers are startlingly bright white on shrubby little plants with needle-like leaves, and when in full bloom, they cover the entire plant.
Annual Candytuft (Iberis Umbellata) is a plant that is just about as wonderful as its Perennial cousin. It flowers within a couple of months from seed, and colors range from white to pink to purple. It is a taller and less compact plant than Perennial Candytuft. Annual Candytuft is often found in wildflower and annual mixes due to its easy seeding and growth habits.
