Reaching up to just 30cm in height, this charming variety is perfect for filling in gaps in borders or softening the edges of a path. The small, white flowers are borne in dense clusters, creating a fresh, snow-like effect that brightens up the garden from spring into early summer. Awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit, Iberis 'Snowflake' is a tried-and-tested favourite for those who appreciate both reliability and beauty in their plants.
Not just a pretty face, Iberis sempervirens 'Snowflake' thrives in well-drained soil and a sunny spot, offering year-round interest with its evergreen foliage. Its tidy, compact habit makes it ideal for smaller gardens, containers, or even as a low-maintenance ground cover. The cheerful white blooms of candytuft attract pollinators and provide a soft, elegant touch to any planting scheme. With its minimal care requirements and long-lasting charm, Iberis 'Snowflake' is perfect for gardeners seeking a plant that combines ease with elegance. Whether used in mixed borders or as a stand-alone feature, this variety is sure to add a little extra sparkle to your garden.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Check each plant’s specifications. Hardy perennials can remain outdoors, while half-hardy and tender varieties should be kept frost-free until the risk of frost has passed.
Plant within a month, preferably sooner. Choose a suitable position, remove weeds and loosen the soil thoroughly, adding compost or well-rotted organic matter where needed.
Gently remove the plant from its pot and plant with the root ball level with the soil surface. Firm gently, water well and add a plant label.
Water regularly until established and whenever the soil feels dry during spring and summer. Feed container-grown plants fortnightly during active growth to encourage healthy flowering.
