Rock Cress Aubrieta Hybrida Whitewell Gem is a perennial flowering ground cover with purple violet inflorescences, perfect for garden walls and rock gardens.
This dense ground cover has thick mounding habit and can establish a deep root system in the soil behind a retaining wall, giving the appearance of a living wall.
After blooming, trim this purple Aubrieta to encourage a thick mounding habit.
Aubrieta plants attract butterflies and provide erosion control.
Plant Aubrieta in a sunny spot and make sure they have enough spacing for air circulation to prevent rot.
Rocky soils that prevent standing water will keep healthy root systems on your aubrieta plants.
