Frogfruit (Phyla nodiflora) is a low-growing, evergreen perennial with charming white to pinkish flowers that provide nectar to a variety of bees and butterflies. It's a host plant for the Phaon crescent, White peacock, and other butterflies, supporting their full life cycle.
Its dense mat-like growth offers shelter to small critters and ground-nesting bees, while helping to prevent soil erosion. This makes frogfruit an excellent choice for groundcover or lawn alternative. It's adaptable to a range of soil moisture conditions—from dry to moist—and it can also be grown in containers.
With tiny flowers that bloom from May through November (sometimes year-round), frogfruit adds color and texture to your garden even when other plants go dormant.
Grown non-GMO and free of harmful neonicotinoids for healthy pollinators and planet, these plants:
- Support wildlife species including birds, butterflies, and other pollinators and wildlife
- Return each year
- Never need chemicals and require less water once established
Available in sets of three, six, or 12 plants.
