Growing Tips for Organic Sweet Alyssum Seeds:

  1. Planting: Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring after the last frost or start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sprinkle seeds lightly on the soil surface and press down gently, as they need light to germinate. Space seeds 6-8 inches apart.
  2. Soil: Prefers well-drained soil but can tolerate various soil types, including sandy and rocky soils. A neutral to slightly alkaline pH is ideal.
  3. Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil moist, especially during dry periods. Sweet Alyssum prefers moderate watering but is somewhat drought-tolerant once established.
  4. Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade. In hot climates, afternoon shade is beneficial to prevent wilting.
  5. Maintenance: Minimal maintenance is required. Trim back plants after the first bloom to encourage a second flush of flowers and prevent legginess.
  6. Companion Planting: Pairs well with other flowers and vegetables. It is excellent for interplanting with taller plants as it can help deter pests and attract beneficial insects.

Benefits and Uses of Sweet Alyssum:

  • Season-Long Blooms: Provides continuous color from spring through fall, especially if deadheaded regularly.
  • Beneficial Insect Habitat: Attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, as well as beneficial insects like ladybugs and lacewings that help control aphids and other pests.
  • Erosion Control: Acts as a living mulch, helping to prevent soil erosion and retain moisture.
  • Aesthetic Versatility: Perfect for garden borders, rock gardens, and containers. Creates a beautiful, fragrant ground cover that fills in garden gaps.
