40 Seeds American Germander Teucrium canadense Woodland Wildflower
American Germander is a hardy native perennial known for its upright stems and spikes of small, two-lipped flowers in soft pink to lavender tones. Blooming through the warmer months, it brings a natural, meadow-like character to borders, wildflower patches, and informal garden plantings.
This wildflower suits pollinator-friendly landscapes, native plant gardens, and naturalized areas where its tall, bushy habit adds vertical interest. The foliage is aromatic when brushed, and the plants grow steadily from seed, forming clumps that return each season in suitable climates. Space plants so air moves freely, and water regularly during establishment for best results.
