Sharp-leaf fluellen is a delicate, trailing annual wildflower with small snapdragon-like blooms that is well suited to wildflower meadows, disturbed ground, or gravel gardens. It prefers well-drained to dry soils in a sunny or lightly shaded position and is largely self-sufficient once established. Minimal care is required — allow it to self-seed freely to naturalize a patch over successive seasons.
