Swamp Twinflower (Dyschoriste humistrata)
Part sun to shade
Average to high water needs
Size: 0.5- 1 ft tall- 8ft wide
Bloom Time: Spring, Summer, Fall
I am an upland ground cover occurring naturally in partially shaded edges of forested wetlands. I am a deciduous perennial, so I die back in the winter and emerge in the early spring. My long branches will fall to the ground and root where they touch moist soil. I produce pale lavender flowers from spring to fall and my leaves are a host plant for the common buckeye butterfly.
