Read about Iberis sempervirens in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Iberis sempervirens, Linn. Perennial, to 1 ft., branching, somewhat shrubby: lvs. oblong, obtuse, narrowed at base, glabrous: fls. white, in elongating racemes. S. Eu. Gng. 2:145 (fine habit sketch). F.R. 1:75 (poor). G.W. 8, p. 373. var. plena, a double form, is cult., but is less desirable. var. rose and var. foliis variegatis, are sold abroad. var. superba, or Perfection, is said to be one of the best forms.—This is the commonest, hardiest and most permanent of the perennial kinds. When the rarer and tenderer kinds are winter-killed, I. sempervirens is likely to spread out and surround the labels of other kinds. This probably explains why some of the most reliable dealers have sold this plant under other names, particularly I. gibraltarica. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
