Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Identical to the species in every way but smaller! Expanding clumps of cedar scented foliage stay low to the ground and 9" stems of magenta flowers in spring and fall…perfect for DRY SHADE where other plants won't grow! A little darling with tenacity! Great ground cover for a rooty, dryish woodland garden…
