How to plant & care for Iberis

WATER:

Water occasionally. Iberis prefers few thorough waterings as opposed to lots of light waterings.

EXPOSURE:

Candytuft plants prefer to have sun all day long! They thrive when given 6 or more hours of direct sun light.

PRUNING:

After Iberis blooms, you can prune back the top third of the plant.

PROPAGATION:

Take a few cuttings from your existing Candytuft plant in late Spring and place the bottom part of the stem into soil that is mixed heavily with compost. Wait for roots to grow then transplant to desired spot.

FERTILIZER:

Fertilize in the beginning of Spring and in the middle of its growing season.

Diseases often seen on Iberis

Crown rot and club rot.
