Yo Yo Snow in Summer is a compact herbaceous perennial that forms a dense mat of fine silver green foliage.  The abundant petite white flowers nearly coat the foliage from late spring to early summer.  Flowers best in full sun and dry, well-drained sandy soils.  Yo Yo has a more restrained growth making spread easier to control.
