How to keep Alyssum Hirsutum.

Pruning

Alyssum hirsutum is known for its hairy leaves and clustered flowers. To help it thrive, prune the plant in early spring. This involves trimming away dead or unruly stems to improve air circulation and reduce the risk of disease. Regular pruning encourages denser flowering and helps maintain the plant's overall health. However, be mindful of the plant's natural growth habit to avoid over-trimming.
