Germander (Teucrium chamaedrys) Perennial. Zones 5-9. This is a small woody shrub that grows 6-18". It forms a woody base. Germander needs well drained soil, can tolerate a little bit of dryness but does best with regular water. It flowers in midsummer with purple/pink blooms. It is often used in formal herb gardens as edging. It prefers full sun but can tolerate part sun though it will tend to be leggy.
