Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Iberis amara, Linn. Common Annual, Candytuft. Plant erect, stiffish, 6-12 in., very bitter: lvs. lanceolate, toothed toward apex: fls. white, the clusters at first short but afterward elongating: pod nearly orbicular. Common weed of cult, ground in Great Britain and Cent, and S. Eu. The best form is var. coronaria, Voss (I. coronaria, Hort., not D. Don). Rocket Candytuft. This has larger and fuller clusters and larger fls. The taller varieties, Empress, Spiral White, and Giant Snowflake, grow 18 in. high, with solid pyramidal trusses 5-8 in. long. Dwarf forms are Tom Thumb and Little Prince. All are good bedders, and Empress is excellent for cutting. Seed may be sown at any time, but the best results with Empress are secured by sowing under glass and transplanting to the open, where plants will bloom in May and June.
