Iberis umbellata ‘Rose Cardinal’, also known as annual candytuft, is a compact and floriferous plant that produces clusters of rich rose-pink flowers with a slightly domed shape. The blooms create a dense carpet of colour that works beautifully in borders, edging, and containers. Its neat, low-growing habit makes it especially useful for filling gaps and softening pathways or garden edges. Easy to grow and fast to flower, Iberis thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, performing well even in poorer soils. It is also attractive to pollinators, making it a good choice for wildlife-friendly and Mediterranean-style gardens.
