Iberis Snowdrift™ is the first truly late-flowering Candytuft, blooming four weeks later than early varieties like Snow Cone™ to extend the season with a flurry of pristine white flowers. Its compact, mounding habit is perfect for small to mid-sized containers or spring bedding displays. Blooming from mid-spring to late summer, this versatile plant thrives as a short-lived perennial in the South or a standout annual in the North, delivering low-maintenance beauty for any garden.
