Aubrieta gracilis ‘Kitte’

Aubrieta gracilis Kitte grows like a carpet and covers the ground with beautiful purple flowers that have a cheerful yellow center. The leaves keep their silvery-green hue throughout the year. They are oval in shape with a bit of flair due to the coarsely cut edges. Perfect for color among rocks, rock gardens and bright window boxes.

Care tips

These plants like good soil that is rich in nutrients, permeable to water and contains lime. Make sure the soil is not too wet; they prefer a little dryness. They thrive best when they get plenty of sunlight.

After flowering, it is a good idea to prune the plant back. This not only helps encourage new blooms, but also keeps the plant nice and compact.
