Teucrium canadense var. hypoleucum var. hypoleucum
This southeastern native variety of American germander is a low-maintenance perennial that spreads by rhizomes and produces spikes of pink to lavender flowers in summer. It thrives in moist to average soils in partial shade, making it well suited for rain gardens or woodland edges in the Gulf Coast region. Once established, it requires little care and will naturalize readily, providing excellent ground coverage and pollinator support.
