Featured plant: garden loosestrife
Garden Loosestrife (Lysmachia vulgaris) Perennial. NOTE: I can not ship seeds or plants of this to CT or WA. If you are from these states, please do not purchase. I will have to cancel the transaction. This is one of the old timey garden plants found in the gardens of many old houses. It can grow to 4' if happy and has bright yellow flowers. It prefers full sun but will do ok in part sun. It can tolerate dry conditions and does particularly well in wet areas...a little too well. It can become a troublesome, invasive weed in wetlands and that is the reason why I can't ship it to CT or WA. Contained in a garden setting, well away from wetlands, it can be kept in bounds. Zones 4-9.
