White Rose Turtlehead

This is the unusual white-flowered form of our native turtlehead. It has dark green foliage on a 20-inch tall clump. The clump will eventually widen to several feet. In late summer and early fall, the clumps are topped with white snapdragon-like flowers. It tolerates wet or dry conditions and is good way to blending late season color into the garden.
