The Story
Common Name: Aubrieta ‘Kitte Blue’
Latin Name: Aubrieta gracilis ‘Kitte Blue’
Description: A low-growing, evergreen perennial forming a dense mat of small, grey-green foliage. In spring, it becomes smothered in a profusion of vibrant blue-violet flowers, creating a striking carpet of colour that spills beautifully over walls and rockeries.
Garden Impact: Perfect for rock gardens, alpine beds, and the front of borders, where it softens edges and provides a vivid early-season display. Its trailing habit makes it especially effective cascading over stone or container edges.
Light & Water Requirements: Prefers full sun and well-drained soil; drought tolerant once established and ideal for dry, sunny spots.
Size (Fully Grown): Approximately 10–15cm tall with a spread of up to 45–60cm.
