Alyssum

Alyssums are low growing hardy perennials and annuals. The white flowering, very fragrant annuals are much used for edgings window boxes and walkways. They are easy of culture and can be grown in any soil that is not overly wet, but they do best in loamy soild of moderate fertility. Seeds may be sown as early as the ground can be prepared in spring. The annuals plants will begin to bloom when 2 or 3 inches tall, and they continue to bloom until after the first hard frosts. The annuals form mats 1 to 2 ft across. The plants can be thinned out or transplanted to stand half a foot apart. Most selections are low growing and few are rarely more than a foot high. In the fall plants may be cut back and put into pots or boxes and they will bloom in the window. For best winter flowering, start the seeds in boxes or pots in August September or October. The hardy perennial yellow flowered Alyssums which are useful for prominent edgings and for rockwork and walls.

[Lobularia maritima] 'Sweet Alyssum' (low-bu-LAIR-ee-ah: mar-IT-eh-mah) Brassicaceae:

This tetraploid selection has longer lasting, larger sized, pure white flowers. Plants grow 4 inches tall with a spread from 8 to 12 inches wide. Give plants a haircut in mid summer for even better shape and renewed blooming power. More heat tolerant that other selections. For the fullest effect space out each plant about six inches apart, best performance in full sun and well draining soils.

Annuals. Surface sow seeds, light helpful. Use F. 70-75, germination in 5-20 days.

Code: AB1-A7
Price: $2.55

'Silver Alyssum' BRASSICACEAE:

Great plants that grow 10 to 12 inches tall and form a thick bushy 24 inch a wide mound of silver gray foliage that is covered with soft yellow flowers in mid to late spring. The plants have flowers here and there until late summer. Use in dryer areas like sandy and rocky soils. I like this plant used as a carpet over a large area, nice sight to behold looking like soft yellow clouds over the ground. For me in Minnesota, the plants are what I would call semi-evergreen, with silver green wiry stems that more or less keep there leaves on through winter. In the spring plants produce a robust growth of new foliage and then flower. Trim plants back in the fall or early spring to make thicker growth. Like most plants in the mustard family this species likes well drained soils and is drought tolerant. Full sun to light morning shade. Thriving even in sandy soils.

Zones 4-7. Sow seed and cover lightly, light helps for best germination, 3 weeks. 70F. do not over water.

100 seeds.



  Alyssum aurinia saxatilis 'Gold Dust'
Code: AB2-A7
Price: $1.25

Quantity in Basket: none
 


Plants bloom from around May 1 to June 1 and are covered in gold-yellow flowers. Trailing stems grow 12 inches long, giving good sized clouds of bright yellow flowers. Plants are 8 to 12 inches tall and do best in full sun with very well draining soils, and should be cut in half after flowering in late spring and early summer. 'Gold Ball' is different from the other selections because it flowers earlier than the species and forms an 8 inch tall rounded shape.

Surface sow and grow out under cool temps. Germination in three weeks at 65 F.

100 seeds.
