Hairy toadflax
Kickxia spuria
Hairy Toadflax is a sprawling annual-to-perennial wildflower best suited to sunny borders, disturbed ground, or gravel gardens where drainage is excellent. It produces charming small snapdragon-like flowers and requires very little care once established in a well-drained spot. Avoid overwatering, as it is adapted to drier, free-draining soils typical of arable field margins.
