Iberis sempervirens

Hooray for bilateral symmetry! Makes for super lovely flowers. This one is from the Raulston Arboretum, Raleigh, NC.

I didn’t have much to say about this nice little flower. It’s an evergreen shrub and does well with not too much water when established, making it especially appropriate for rock gardens. The flowers bloom in the spring in big white mounds. The plant also attracts bees and butterflies – yay for pollinators, too!
