Snow Cone™ Forte is Syngenta Flowers’ Iberis sempervirens selection, listed under product code 70028045. It forms a low mound of dark green foliage topped by large white, cone-shaped flower clusters, with an early-to-mid-spring flowering period. ([Syngenta Flowers](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70028045))
## Garden Use
The breeder lists a mature range of 5–8 inches tall by 9–12 inches wide and notes its mounding habit. Plant it at a border front, along a path, or in a sunny rock garden where its broad spring flower display can be seen.

## Growing Conditions
Provide full sun and well-drained soil. Candytuft tolerates moist to slightly dry soil but declines in wet, poorly drained ground. ([NC State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/iberis-sempervirens/))
## Maintenance
After flowering, shear back about one-third to encourage fresh growth and maintain a compact outline. In colder climates, mulch if winter foliage needs protection.
