Scented, easygoing, and colourful

One seldom sees candytuft growing in gardens these days, and it’s a shame. These low-growing, scented annuals come in an exciting mixture of pinks, purples, and whites. They’re easy to grow, free-flowering, and quite happy to self-seed for you if they like the spot you chose for them. Use them as an edging for flower beds or plant them in pots, either on their own or to pretty up pots with larger feature plants.
