How can you go wrong with a plant that grows in shade, blooms like crazy in early to mid spring and is one of the most low maintenance plants you can find? You can’t go wrong with a plant like ‘Sherwood Purple’ that flows and tumbles over the contour of the land with prostrate branches that are tightly packed with deep green foliage. Mid to late April transforms this plant from a great groundcover to a fantastic ocean of color with deep purple star-shaped flowers covering the branches and flower over the landscape. Native insects are thrilled by this early nectar source and you’ll be thrilled to know that this plant is great to plant in groups in the shade and works so well planted amongst other natives!
