The Alyssum is propagated by seeds that can be sown directly in the planting site in March to ensure abundant summer flowering.
The Alyssum needs frequent watering, every two days during the spring season and every day during the hot summer days. Regarding the fertilization of the Alyssum , it needs special attention as excessive fertilization, especially nitrogen, can reduce flowering.
