Arabis caucasica 'Pixie Cream'

Mountain rock cress is one of the best plants for the rockery. Billows of white flowers are particularly stunning tumbling over stone walls or when used as edging along paths. This mat-forming, evergreen perennial is native to the limestone cliffs of the Caucasus Mountains. Good drainage is essential.

Come spring, 'Pixie Cream' is smothered in dozens of tiny creamy yellow flowers with bright-yellow centers.
