\u2018Purity\u2019 candytuft<\/h2>\n

Name: Iberis sempervirens<\/em> \u2018Purity\u2019<\/h3>\n

Zones<\/strong>:\u00a03\u20138
Size<\/strong>:\u00a06 to 9 inches tall and 12 to 18 inches wide
Conditions<\/strong>:\u00a0Full sun; well-drained soil
Native range<\/strong>: Southwestern Europe<\/p>\n

\u2018Purity\u2019 candytuft is a front-of-border perennial ground cover that does a lot. Blooming for several weeks in spring, it also sports attractive, almost needlelike foliage for the rest of the year. The slightly domed pure white blossoms completely smother the plant, attracting butterflies aplenty. Be sure to deadhead and prune the foliage back into a mounded shape when the flowers finish their display; this is a must to keep it tidy. The foliage will stay evergreen even if snow-covered in winter. If \u2018Purity\u2019 gets tattered due to desiccation, any brown dehydrated tops won\u2019t bloom, so consider a light winter cover of evergreen boughs in windswept sites. This candytuft was selected for its compactness, large flowers, and profuse bloom. It\u2019s also rabbit and deer resistant.<\/p>\n

\u2018Montrose White\u2019 calamint<\/h2>\n

Name: Calamintha nepeta<\/em> var. nepeta<\/em><\/h3>\n

Zones<\/strong>: 5\u20139
Size<\/strong>:\u00a015 to 18 inches tall and wide
Conditions<\/strong>: Full sun; average, well-drained soil
Native range<\/strong>:\u00a0Europe, Mediterranean region<\/p>\n

This plant has a very upright, almost vase-shaped habit and gray-green foliage with a strong herbal scent. The star turn really occurs when \u2018Montrose White\u2019 steps forward with its top-to-bottom froth of delicate two-lipped white flowers that last from June until late October. I don\u2019t want to oversell here, but mine was still in full-tilt flower when I cut it back in early November this year. And this calamint is never without bees, wasps, moths, and butterflies hovering over it. I purposely avoid giving my plants supplemental water during drought and they haven\u2019t been phased. Cooler fall weather often causes the flowers to tint blue. This cultivar is sterile and doesn\u2019t seed about promiscuously.<\/p>\n

\u2018Thai Pink Jade\u2019 garden phlox<\/h2>\n

Name: Phlox paniculata\u00a0<\/em><\/h3>\n

Zones<\/strong>:\u00a05\u20139
Size<\/strong>:\u00a02 to 3 feet tall and wide
Conditions<\/strong>:\u00a0Full sun; moist, well-drained soil
Native range<\/strong>: North America<\/p>\n

Ever really wanted to have garden phlox<\/a>, but thought, No, I\u2019m not crazy about powdery mildew<\/em>. Then I urge you to get this beautiful, highly PM-resistant phlox with a long bloom season. From July to late September, you\u2019ll enjoy beautifully domed medium-pink flowers with a deeper pink eye and a lovely, lilting fragrance. Deadhead the first flush of blooms once they\u2019re finished, and lower lateral flowers will emerge to keep the performance going. The foliage is pointed and seemingly thicker and darker green than most garden phlox, creating an asset in its own right. \u2018Thai Pink Jade\u2019 is also a marvelous cut flower. The plant\u2019s habit is strongly upright, making it easy for bumblebees and hummers to stop for a sip.<\/p>\n

\u2018Bubblegum Candles\u2019 veronica<\/h2>\n

Name: Veronica spicata<\/em> \u2018Bubblegum Candles\u2019<\/h3>\n

Zones<\/strong>:\u00a04\u20138
Size<\/strong>:\u00a08 inches tall and 12 inches wide
Conditions<\/strong>:\u00a0Full sun; rich, well-drained soil
Native range<\/strong>:\u00a0Hybrid<\/p>\n

At this stage of my gardening life, I\u2019m inexplicably just growing veronicas for the first time and loving \u2018Bubblegum Candles\u2019. It\u2019s a tidy little number with a dwarf habit and (yes, you guessed correctly) candle-like spikes of deep rosy-pink flowers that go on all summer, especially if you\u2019re conscientious about deadheading. Its foliage is a deep, glossy green and serrated. This long-blooming perennial prefers an organically enhanced soil and supplemental moisture during drought. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds will be frequent visitors to your new addition\u2014deer and rabbits, not so much. It\u2019s useful for low front-of-the-border edging and staggered odd-numbered groupings, or even tucked in mixed containers. This plant could legitimately be described as \u201csweet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n
