|
Flowering in late summer and early fall, this turtlehead has white snapdragon-like flowers on 2 to 4 foot tall stems. It occurs in moist, partly shaded places throughout the eastern US. In the garden, plant it in full sun to light shade, in moist soil. An early summer pinching will keep it shorter and fuller. Cat# 1463
