Everwilde Farms - 1 lb Showy Obedient Plant Native Wildflower Seeds - Gold Vault Bulk Seed Packet

Forming on tall spikes, these fascinating snapdragon-like blossoms provide an alternative to Obedient Plant. This pale pink perennial is perfect for native plantings or cottage gardens. These native plants earned their name because of their flexible stems, which "obediently" stay bent for short periods of time. Another common name, "dragon-head," comes from a fancied resemblance of the blossoms to the head of a mythical beast. The genus name "Physostegia" comes from the Greek words for "bladder covering," referring to the rounded seed pods. The species name "angustifolia" comes from the Latin, meaning "narrow-leaved."
