Lysimachia lanceolata 'Burgundy Mist'

Loosestrife-Lance-Leaved

This selection of a native, weed-suppressing groundcover is prized for its dark green foliage that is heavily shaded with burgundy tones when grown in full sun. Yellow, star-shaped flowers contrast brightly against the foliage throughout the summer; they are pollinated by native bees. Tolerates alkaline soils of most types.
