Dwarf Fairy Mix Candytuft (Iberis umbellata) is a compact annual with fragrant flowers in pink, carmine, white, and lavender. This 2-pack contains 500 heirloom, open-pollinated, non-GMO seeds total, 250 seeds per pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWHAT DO THE FLOWERS LOOK LIKE? Dwarf Fairy Mix produces fragrant, flat-topped flower clusters measuring 1–2 in. across in a four-color mix of pink, carmine, white, and lavender. Blooms appear from late spring through summer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHOW BIG DOES DWARF FAIRY MIX GROW? Plants reach just 8–10 in. tall with a compact, mounding habit that spreads to form low ground cover. The dwarf size works especially well along border fronts, edging, rock gardens, containers, and cottage garden paths.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHOW DO I GERMINATE CANDYTUFT SEEDS? Surface sow or barely cover seeds to no more than 1\/8 in. deep because light aids germination. Seeds typically germinate in 14–21 days at 70–75°F. Thin seedlings to approximately 8–10 in. apart after emergence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWHEN SHOULD I PLANT CANDYTUFT? Direct sow outdoors after the last frost for best results. Seeds may also be started indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost, preferably in individual pots to minimize root disturbance when transplanting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWHAT SOIL AND LIGHT CONDITIONS DOES CANDYTUFT PREFER? Grow in full sun to partial shade and well-drained, alkaline-to-neutral soil. Candytuft tolerates poor and rocky ground and becomes drought tolerant once established. Avoid wet, heavy clay and overwatering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDOES CANDYTUFT ATTRACT POLLINATORS? Yes. Its wide, flat-topped flower clusters provide accessible landing areas for bees, butterflies, and hoverflies. Iberis umbellata also supports moth caterpillars, adding wildlife value to pollinator-friendly plantings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIS CANDYTUFT DEER AND RABBIT RESISTANT? Dwarf Fairy Mix is typically avoided by deer and rabbits. Combined with its drought tolerance and ability to grow in poor soil, it makes a practical low-maintenance annual for borders and rock gardens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWHERE CAN I GROW DWARF FAIRY MIX? Its compact growth works well as ground cover and in borders, edging, rock gardens, raised beds, containers, window boxes, cottage gardens, fairy gardens, sunny slopes, and drought-tolerant landscapes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHOW MUCH DO I GET?
