Aubrieta Large Flowering Mix Seeds

 

Aubrieta Large Flowering Mix (Aubrieta hybrida) is a delightful low growing perennial, producing masses of brightly coloured blooms in shades of violet, pink, blue, and purple.

 

This variety is specially selected for its larger flowers, creating a vibrant carpet of colour throughout spring.

 

A true garden favourite, aubrieta is perfect for rockeries, walls, borders, and containers, where it cascades beautifully over edges.

 

Its evergreen foliage ensures year-round interest, while the profusion of early flowers makes it an excellent nectar source for bees and pollinators at the start of the season.
