Plant description
Iberis 'Pink Ice' is a mound-forming perennial with flattened, delicate raspberry-pink centred, blush flowers that sit atop narrow, evergreen foliage with petals that are dainty and frilled. ‘Pink Ice’ has a compact habit making it a great choice for the front of borders and rock gardens.
Its long-lasting blooms and attractive foliage make it a valuable addition to any garden, and it is easy to care for, making it a great choice for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. Excellent for edging a sunny path or border, the plants will become drought tolerant once established, while the flowers are very attractive to butterflies.

How to care for Iberis Pink Ice:
Plant Iberis in full sun and well-drained soil, spacing 30-40cm (12-16in) apart. Water moderately while establishing, then sparingly once settled, as it is drought tolerant and only needs a light spring feed.
Protect young plants from slugs and snails and after flowering give a light trim to keep them neat—avoid cutting back hard, as they don’t respond well. Older clumps can be replaced every few years if they become woody.
