Lobularia Maritima (Oriental Nights) - This Alyssum is marked by clumps of foliage covered with numerous rich violet, fragrant flowers, from spring through early fall. Leaves are lance shaped, 1 inch long. This plant grows to 4 inches in height. With its lovely honey fragrance, this delicate, reseeding annual is an excellent choice for borders and containers. Very nice in rock gardens and between flagstones. This alyssum flower seed is a perfect companion with pansies, sweet william and parsley in a container. Soil should be well-drained, as soggy soil is a sure way to rot. Can be rejuvenated by shearing back: often plants brought home from the nursery have gotten too leggy in their cramped space, or time has taken its toll. Within 4 weeks, plant should be bushy and blooming again.
