The Evergreen Candytuft flowers from March to May and provides a moderate amount of nectar with a moderate pollen value. It is a low, evergreen subshrub from southern Europe and grows in rock gardens and on wall tops. Its white corymbs appear early in the year and last several weeks. At the time of the first brood expansion it is a useful addition in the garden. British measurements give around 3 micrograms of sugar per flower per day.
