Aubrieta, commonly known as rock cress, is a genus of flowering plants in the mustard family (Brassicaceae). Aubrieta varieties are popular in gardens for their low-growing, spreading habit and vibrant blooms that often come in shades of purple, pink, and white. The white variety of Aubrieta can add a lovely contrast to garden beds, rock gardens, or borders.
