Heart-pod hoary cress
Lepidium draba
Heart-pod hoary cress is a vigorous, spreading perennial weed with clusters of small white flowers, well-suited to difficult dry sites where few other plants thrive. It requires virtually no supplemental care once established and tolerates poor, dry soils with ease. Note that it spreads aggressively by both seed and deep creeping roots, so plant with caution and monitor its spread in garden settings.
