Cruciferae
Aubrieta Variegata

A fabulous evergreen perennial which forms a compact mound of attractive, holly-shaped, green leaves with a clean and crisp creamy-white variegation. Perfect for incorporating into the rock garden, it produces masses of fabulous, rich violet-purple blooms which clothe the entire plant and contrast beautifully with the variegated foliage. It has hairy leaves to minimise water loss from the leaf surface, making it drought tolerant and looks great when used at the front of a mixed border or in a hanging basket with other, less hardy plants. Allow it to cascade over walls or other obstacles to add invaluable spring colour to the garden.

Position: Full sun

Soil: A poor to moderately nutritious, well-drained soil

Rate of Growth: Average

Flowering Period: April to May

Flower Colour: Rich violet-purple

Other Features: Combines well with winter flowering heathers (Ericas)

Hardiness: Fully hardy

Garden Care: Cut back quite hard by shearing after flowering has finished to maintain a neat, compact growth habit and to encourage a second flush of blooms. Incorporate ericaceous compost into the planting hole for best results, particularly when combining with Ericas. Please Note: Although all our perennials are advertised as being sold in 1 litre containers, they are sometimes stocked in 9cm pots instead (particularly during the winter). If you order perennials from us, we reserve the right to supply them in 9cm pots instead of 1 litre containers, at a price of £2.00 instead of £2.80. Between November and March many perennials go ‘dormant’ which, in some cases, means they are sold as a root, corm or bulb with no top growth. If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in the spring.

Eventual Height:  25cm
Eventual Spread:  50cm
