Round-leaved ragwort is native wildflower and could be be considered "weedy" by some, but this perennial has some great benefits, so just use this plant on the right place :
- modest, adaptable and shade tolerant plant
- withstands heat and sun (more than it's more robust cousin P. aurea)
- easily grown, quick spreading - can be used as substitute of the lawn in smaller shaded areas
- flowers for long time, since May to June, with the bloom peak lasting for about 3 week
- valuable nectar and pollen source for native bees (cuckoo bees, Halictid bees, Andrenid bees), Syrphid flies, Tachinid flies and miscellaneous beetles. Attracts butterflies
- can be naturalized in meadows, extensive lawns, after blooming can be mowed
- it is deer and rabbit resistant (toxic to mammal herbivores) and black walnut tolerant plant
Roundleaf ragwort, roundleaf groundsel or squaw weed is native to southeastern USA, and can be found on rocky wooded hillsides, clearings, limestone ledges, stream banks or moist meadows.
In ideal conditions can form ground covering mats, grows to 1-1.5' tall and wide, it self-seeds easily and also can spread by short rhizomes.
For naturalizing in open woodlands, wild gardens, cottage gardens, native plant gardens, but can be used in borders as groundcover perennial (after it finishes blooming, cut it back), or along streams/ponds. For average soils, medium moist to wet, best with some drainage (but it is adaptable). Sun, half shade, full shade.
Pot Size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot
