Hexastylis arifolia
Little Brown Jugs Zones: 6, 7, 8, 9
Little Brown Jugs is a common wildflower in the woods of the southeast. It forms 9 inch clumps of evergreen, heart-shaped, olive green leaves that are sometimes mottled silver. Mid-spring flowers are shaped like small brown jugs and are hidden by the leaves among the leaf litter. They are curious looking, though, and never fail to delight children. Plant Little Brown Jugs in a shadey place with reasonably good soil in clusters of several in an up-front spot to best show it off. Cat# 1541
