This gorgeous perennial forms a loose, spreading mound of grey-green leaves, topped with a mass of small, lightly scented, white flowers, which take on a pink blush as they mature. Appearing over several months from mid-spring, they are rich in nectar (so sought after by pollinators), and they add a wonderful burst of colour to pots, alpine beds or border edges. - Garden care: Cut back after flowering to encourage a new flush of foliage. Lift and divide large clumps in autumn.
