Larger flowers and more vigorous growth than other Aubrietia. Masses of flowers in purple shades cover a low mounding, semi-evergreen perennial. Best in moderately fertile, slightly alkaline, well-drained soil. Looks beautiful cascading over walls or between stepping stones. Cut back after flowering to maintain a dense habit.
