The tiny fragrant flowers of Gulf Winds grow in soft clusters that soon form a ground-covering pastel tapestry in rose, soft pink, lilac and white. Easy to grow and blooming in just 6 to 8 weeks, compact, 4 to 6 inch Gulf Winds makes a perfect carpet in rose or bulb beds or to fill in containers or soften garden borders. The flowers’ sweet nectar attracts butterflies and pollinators of all kinds and their honey-scent perfumes the air throughout summer.
