$6.99
This ground covering perennial might be common along the river banks, but it is not very common in our gardens, which is a pity. It's not the most showy, but it’s still a wonderful wildflower to have in your collection. Clusters of tiny pinkish-white flowers are circled around small heads (3/4 inch across) reminiscent of Verbena (Phyla belongs to the Verbenacea family). This is an attractive small ground cover which has striking ornamental leaves. Provides excellent support for wildlife due to the long flowering season.
It grows best in moist or medium moist soils, bogs, margins, water edges, rain gardens, ponds and for naturalizing. Combine with perennials like Eupatorium coelestinum, tall Phloxes, Lobelias, Irises (lousiana, versicolor, virginica, sibirica etc.), Physostegia or sedges (Carex).
Blooming Time: June–September
Size: usually 6" high and wide-spreading
USDA Zones: 3 to 9
Culture: Sun to half shade, average soil up to heavier clay soil, but always with some moisture

Lance leafed fogfruit
This is really delightful as a filler in the front of the bed. Good spread and really lovely little blooms. It’s a rare treat.

Lance-leaved fogfruit
The fogfruit is a native, but is hard to find. The plants arrived in a very timely way, and they were well packed. The instructions were clear. Well done!
