Aristolochia fimbriata Cuphea It's one of the toughest

It's one of the toughest part sun groundcovers we've ever grown

don't cut the stalks back until spring

this light shade- and moisture-lover forms rounded patterned leaves of velvety medium green

clothed in green leaves which are heavily spotted yellow

Aristolochia fimbriata Cuphea It's one of the toughestAristolochia fimbriata is a really cool deciduous groundcover Dutchman's pipe that spreads out to 2'. The prostrate little green stems are clothed with medium green rounded leaves, each highlighted with dramatic silver veining. The cute, little, 1" long, yellow and brown flowers resemble miniature elephant trunks and are produced along the stem all summer. In winter, the stems retreat back to the base so there are no invasive problems with this gem!
