Purple Alyssum

Lobularia maritima var. purple
Sweet Alyssum / Purple Alyssum (Lobularia maritima) is an annual forb native to coastal US states (such as California) and has also been successfully introduced across North America as a non-invasive flowering annual that can thrive in USDA Zones 3–10. Reaching a mature height of 4–8 inches with a low-growing, spreading carpet-like growth habit, it features small, narrow, grayish-green leaves and produces dense, sweet-scented clusters of tiny deep purple to lavender blooms. It thrives in well-drained sandy or loamy soils in full sun to partial shade and is ideal for orchard ground cover, highway slope stabilization, and beneficial insect attraction.
