Iberis gibraltarica, Linn. Fig. 1944. Perennial, evergreen, diffuse, 12-20 in.: lvs. wedge-shaped, obtuse, subciliate: outer fls. pink, inner ones white. Spain, Morocco. B.M. 124. G.C. III. 46:158. Gn. 10:288; 76, p. 69. G. 27:446. R.H. 1870:330. Gn. 24, p. 549, same as R. H. 1885, p. 446.—This is considered by some as the most striking and showy of the perennial kinds. It grows higher and more erect, with larger clusters and larger fls., but is less hardy than the others. This is much sought after, and the stock in the nurseries is often not true to name. var. hybrida, is advertised, the fls. white shading to lilac.
