Purple Aubrieta (Aubrieta Hybrida Superbissima Cascade Purple) is a slow growing perennial perfect for garden walls and rock gardens.
Aubrieta seeds can be sown from February to June, or from September to October to flower the following summer.
The ground cover plants can establish a deep root system in the soil behind a retaining wall, while foliage and flowers can spread up to 18 inches or more, giving the appearance of a living wall.
Aubrieta plants attract butterflies and provide erosion control.
Plant Aubrieta cascading purple in an area where they have enough light and spacing for air circulation.
Rocky soils that prevent standing water will keep healthy root systems on your aubrieta plants.
