| I was thinking of doing a border with Salvia lyrata 'Purple Volcano' and I want something to go just between and/or behind it since it's basically a foliage plant. I have so many self-sown seedlings new plants aren't a problem! Plus it's foolproof even for me.
I'm confused by what I read about bloom time for Candytuft.
Monticello site says Spring while some seed vendors say "mid-season" or just Summer.
I understand it will vary according to when it's started from seed, planted out and weather.
Could anyone who grows Candytuft let me know what their experience for bloom time has been and whether flowers hold up through Summer's end?
I thought of using Sweet Alyssum but I think something of more substance would better compliment the Salvia lyrata...
or maybe not.
I just want to know what to expect before I buy and start the Candytuft seeds. Not a lot of vendors seem to have the seeds when I search for them.
Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences with this plant. |
