Sweet as Candy

CandyTuft

Magically reappearing year after year throughout my garden is our featured flower of the month CandyTuft.  CandyTuft, (Iberis umbellata) resemble mini umbrellas in your garden. They come in a variety of colors and are dwarfed in size.  Colors of pink, lavender, red and white appear at ground level.  These tender perennials are often grown as annuals and are popular in spring because they flower quickly.  CandyTufts add an old fashion aura of enchantment making them a wonderful addition to many wild flower mixes. I start seeds early in spring in fertile soil for blooms that should appear throughout summer.  Cheers
