Proven Winners Direct White Knight Sweet Alyssum (Lobularia)
White Knight sweet alyssum shows masses of small white blooms on green foliage all season long. It is heat tolerant, and attracts bees and butterflies. It's also rather compact, making it a great choice for container planting or for areas of the landscape that don't have much space to work with.
Plant Powered Packaging by Proven Winners: Introducing the full annual Eco+Grande collection! The Eco+Grande is a game changing Plant Container made from plants! This compostable container is made from starchy renewable plants like corn, switch grass and sugar beets grown in the United States. The Eco+Grande has nutrients built into the wall of the container that helps plants grow bigger and faster all season, if planted in the ground. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product.
8-12 inches tall and spreads up to 2 feet at maturity
Annual except in zones 9-11
Plant in part to full sun (4+ hours daily)
Care: Plants shouldn't need to be pruned but a trim can be administered at any time. Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food. White Knight is a "heavy drinker" and will prefer evenly moist soil. It will be quick to show drought stress but should bounce back quickly once re-hydrated. It is ideal in large planters and the landscape.
