Carpet of Snow Alyssum Seeds: A Classic Ground Cover That Brightens Any Space

When sown, it forms low mounds of tiny white blossoms that catch the sun and illuminate borders, pots, and rock gardens with a delicate, airy glow from early summer through late fall. The fragrance is light and inviting, inviting you to pause at the edge of a path or a container collection and enjoy a moment of garden calm.

In pots, it pairs beautifully with trailing companions to extend seasonal interest, making balconies and patios feel brighter and more cohesive.
