Phyla nodiflora
PLEASE NOTE!!!! This is a FLORIDA ECOTYPE and MAY BE DIFFICULT TO ESTABLISH IN SOUTHWEST CLIMATES such as California and Arizona. It will need SIGNIFICANT IRRIGATION to establish, and may need occasional support during the peak of summer. Please consider this before ordering if you live in these types of climate. We cannot guarantee success!
4" pots, or plug trays available. GREAT lawn alternative and pollinator plant. 72 plug trays available; one tray will be adequate to replace an average suburb sized lawn. Whole tray shipped as one unit.
