Evergreen Candytuft, Iberis Sempervirens

Women and flowers ... tell me about it. Why are we so crazy about them? I love them but prefer them un-plucked. Do you love flowers and would want a lot in your garden but would not want much work and maintaining to do? Get yourself a pot or two or an Evergreen Candytuft, Iberis Sempervirens and watch it propagate like grass year after year. The flowers of the ones I have in my backyard have served as giant umbrellas to hide for the Bombus Muscorum , those sand bees @afrog has identified in our backyard and they were food in Spring for the early zealous Apis Melliferas.

You want sources right? Here, knock yourself out with sources.
