Discovered in 1902 in Charleston, SC, and hailing from the southeastern US, (southeastern South Carolina west to eastern Louisiana), roundleaf bluets live their lives in virtual anonymity. Houstonia procumbens is a southern coastal denizen, a cousin to the better-known bluets, that grows as a 1" tall groundcover in slightly moist sandy open pinelands and sunny roadside banks. Houstonia procumbens patches are adorned with small white flowers from fall through winter. We hope you can find a home for this overlooked cutie in your garden. Our offering is propagated from our 2003 collection from Clay County, Florida.
