Scutellaria havanensis

Havana Skullcap is a compact, low-growing perennial wildflower native to Florida and Cuba. It is prized for its delicate purple-blue flowers that bloom in spikes throughout the year. In a landscape, this drought-tolerant plant serves best in rock gardens, non-irrigated gardens, and coastal settings. Its mounding growth also makes it great as an edge plant, groundcover replacement, or grown in containers. This versatile plant thrives in full sun with well-draining soil but can tolerate part sun. It attracts plenty of pollinators, but especially rare native bees.
