Description: NATIVE WILDFLOWER SEEDS - Blue Porterweed (Stachytarpheta jamaicensis) FL ecotype 50ct. Free Shipping Stachytarpheta jamaicensis is not only fun to say, it's Florida's native porterweed! Yay! Pollinators go nutso for the flowers. Skippers, white peacock, gulf fritillary, native bees...they all adore this plant. Native blue porterweed is low and sprawling, only getting about 12" -18" high. They are sensitive to frost. They can behave as an annual or perennial, however I usually treat them as an annual since they tend to get really woody and leggy towards winter. They start easily from seed and cuttings, so once you have them, it's very easy to propagate more. Warning - they can hybridize with non-native porterweed. If you have that in your yard, you may want to propagate via cuttings instead of saving seed. Range: AL , FL This listing is for one packet of 50 seeds (overpacked). This plant is native to FL, and Florida ecotype. All seeds ethically harvested from nursery stock or owner's property *NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
