Please help me ID this perennial

Post by classicat »

I planted this beautiful perennial in early summer, and it's still going strong, even after our first frost in Maryland. I bought 4 plants, and they have all fanned out 10-fold (and have sprouted new plants as well). It has shiny dark green leaves and is covered with tiny purple daisy-like flowers.

Welcome to Hallson's! I don't know what that particular plant is, but it looks very pretty. If you haven't done so already, you might want to post this topic in the Perennial forum. You'll probably get a better response there! :wink:
Again....welcome! I hope you will enjoy this site. :D

Looks like the Mexican Heather I bought for either side of my Plantaginia. It comes out of the ground in a very triangular pattern, one main stem, then each stem full of leaves comes out real long at the ground end then gradually shorter forming the triangle point at the end. I got them at Home Depot :) .
