Iberis sempervirens ‘Fischbeck’ Description

Iberis sempervirens ‘Fischbeck’ forms a low, spreading evergreen mound of narrow dark green leaves. Broad clusters of small pure white flowers open in spring and can almost conceal the foliage at the height of flowering. Mature plants generally reach around 20 to 25cm high and spread 40cm or more, making them useful for edging paths, spilling over low walls and filling sunny rock gardens. Grow in full sun in neutral to alkaline soil with very good drainage. Once established it tolerates drought and poor ground, but persistent winter wet can shorten its life. Lightly shear the plant after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage fresh leafy growth, avoiding severe cuts into old woody stems.
