If you are planting in south-facing areas, aubrieta is a really handy choice. It stays low, spreads neatly and covers itself in spring flowers, so it is brilliant for making borders, rockeries and walls look fuller without adding lots of maintenance. You get colour exactly where strong light can make other low plants feel a bit underwhelming.

These aubrieta varieties are especially useful when you want colour in warm, bright borders, rockeries and walls. They help soften hard edges, fill front-of-border gaps and create a more finished look in spots that can otherwise feel bare. Because aubrieta keeps a tidy shape, it is easy to work into both smaller gardens and bigger planting schemes, and it gives you a clear seasonal lift without turning into a chore.
