ALYSSUM
If there’s one new plant that should be on everyone’s list, it’s Snow Princess™, a unique breakthrough in the genus for heat tolerance and extended season performance. This sterile Lobularia is extremely vigorous, and because it puts no energy into setting seed it has an incredibly long bloom time. Creates a great hanging basket or window box and is a perfect filler in combinations. Extremely fragrant.

No deadheading necessary. Unlike most alyssum this one will bloom through the summer. This plant is sterile so it will bloom all summer without deadheading.
Snow Princess is a "heavy drinker" and will prefer evenly moist soil. It will be quick to show drought stress, but should bounce back quickly once re-hydrated. In a hanging basket you should be prepared to water often, maybe more than once a day during warm weather. Plants are easier to keep moist when planted in large planters. Due to her water needs Snow Princess is ideal for use in larger planters.
