A delightful dwarf candytuft producing masses of flower heads in soft pastel shades, creating a colourful carpet of blooms through the cooler months. Compact and easy to grow, Dwarf Fairy Mix is ideal for borders, edging, containers, cottage gardens and mass plantings where its cheerful display can be fully appreciated.
The dense clusters of flowers attract bees and other beneficial pollinators, while the neat, compact growth habit makes it a valuable filler plant for garden beds and pathways. Long flowering and reliable, Candytuft performs best in sunny positions and well-drained soils, rewarding gardeners with an abundance of colour from a relatively small plant.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
