Aubrieta Blue cascade, seeds Gavrish Alpine hill 0.05g

A perennial plant that forms beautiful open clumps up to 15 cm high, overwintering under the snow. The leaves are small, oblong-spatulate, with jagged edges. Flowers up to 1 cm in diameter, blue-violet. The whole plant is very decorative at the time of flowering, when the leaves are almost invisible due to the mass of flowers. Blooms from May for about 35-45 days. The location is only sunny, even in the partial shade of the aubriet it stretches out and practically does not bloom. Aubrieta prefers light, not too fertile soils with the addition of lime or chalk, and absolutely does not tolerate sour heavy waterlogged clays, as well as oily soil containing peat. Moisture is especially destructive in winter, so plants are planted on rocky hills, in elevated or well-drained areas. After the May flowering, the plants are immediately cut off, which contributes to new faster and more compact growth. Repeated flowering is observed in autumn. Sowing is done in late April – May or November.
