Physostegia virginiana

The Obedient plant is so named because it does something that my children find impossible, its flowers briefly stay in place when they are moved!

 

Physostegia virginiana is an excellent plant for moist soils where you need a fast growing ground cover. As with other members of the mint family, the root system spreads quickly underground, so plant in a location where large spread is desired (It’s easy to keep in check by pulling up the shallow roots). The pink, late summer blooms provide an abundance of nectar for bees and butterflies well into the fall.

 

Plants can be purchased in-person or online (with in-person pick-up).

All online orders will be ready for pick-up 24-72 hours after purchase. You will receive an email to let you know when your order is ready. We kindly ask that you pick-up any orders within one week of purchase.
