    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A snow white form of one of our favorites - a highly recommended perennial for you gardeners who want more bang for your buck! Forming compact 1'x1' mounds, & making an abundant show of starry white flowers over a prolonged period throughout the Summer, it's a super useful edging plant, great in a pot, & fast to bloom. Even better, it reseeds a tad, so even in zones where this plant is not hardy, it will return in your garden every year! Laurentia axillaris is originally from Australia, & does prefer well drained rich soil if you can provide it.
