  • Sunlight: Alyssum Royal Carpet thrives in full sun but can tolerate light shade. Choose a location in your garden that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day for optimal flowering.
  • This plant prefers well-draining soil with good fertility. Ensure your soil is loamy and not overly compacted.
  • Sow the seeds directly into the garden bed or container in the early spring after the last frost has passed. Space the plants about 6-12 inches apart to allow for their spreading growth.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Alyssum is somewhat drought-tolerant once established but benefits from regular watering, especially during hot, dry spells.
  • Fertilize with a balanced, all-purpose liquid or granular fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.
  • Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. This not only keeps the plant looking tidy but also promotes new flower growth.
  • Alyssum Royal Carpet is generally resistant to most pests and diseases. However, keep an eye out for aphids, snails, and slugs, and take appropriate measures if necessary.
  • As an annual, Alyssum Royal Carpet will not survive the winter. In colder climates, it's best to replant in the spring when the weather warms up.
  • Alyssum Royal Carpet is a great companion plant for vegetables and other flowers. It can help attract pollinators and deter some pests.
  • Seed count: 1/8 gram
