Alpine rockcress
Arabis alpina
Alpine rockcress is a charming low-growing perennial that produces cascades of small white flowers in early spring, making it ideal for rock gardens, walls, and border edges. It prefers well-drained to sandy soil and a sunny to partly shaded position, and will not tolerate soggy roots. Trim lightly after flowering to maintain a tidy mound and encourage fresh compact growth.
