Salvia lyrata
Lyre-Leaved Sage Zones: 5, 6, 7, 8
Lyre-leaved Sage forms a nearly flat rosette of leaves that are dark green to maroon and irregularly lobed or lyre-shaped. From April to June, whorls of small, tubular, lilac flowers appear on stalks 1 foot tall. The real virtue of this species is in its use as a native ground cover for sunny or shady sites with lousy soil. Try the plant instead of Ajuga for a unique perennial ground cover. Withstands light foot traffic. Cat# 1192
