Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

Waterfalls of Aubretia cascading over walls are a spring spectacle which is not to be missed. Aubrieta 'Graeca’ will happily colonise exposed, rocky sites, spreading a carpet of evergreen foliage over walls, rockeries, in paving cracks and along dry border edges. In April and June the foliage becomes obscured by masses of blue flowers which provide a rich source of nectar for pollinating insects, making it a useful addition to wildlife gardens. This resilient perennial copes with the toughest of conditions once established, and can be relied upon year after year for a vibrant cascade of colour. Height: 10cm (4”). Spread: 40cm (16”).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Plant aubrieta in full sun or part shade, on well drained neutral or alkaline soil in rockeries, border edges and containers. On heavier soils, incorporate plenty of grit to improve drainage, prior to planting.

Water regularly until plants are fully established. Cut aubrieta plants back hard after flowering to promote a fresh flush of growth and maintain its compact form.
