Sweet alyssum is a long-blooming annual or short-lived perennial. Growing only about 4 to 6 inches tall, it hugs the ground forming a dense groundcover.Narrow leaves about one inch long hardly show through clusters of tiny flowers that cover the plants over a long season.ome gardeners reported that sweet alyssum was invasive in their gardens and that volunteer plants reverted to the somewhat gangly species. If this is a problem, select one of the recently introduced sterile types, such as âSnow PrincessâÂ®, a sterile hybrid from Proven Winners that is heat tolerant.
