LEPTINELLA X 'PLATT'S BLACK'

Leptinella x 'Platt's Black' is a unique perennial that adds a touch of elegance to any landscape. Known for its striking dark foliage, this plant features finely divided leaves that create a beautiful contrast against lighter-hued plants. The foliage has a rich, deep color that can enhance the visual appeal of garden beds and borders.

This perennial is particularly valued for its low spreading habit. It gradually forms a lush mat that can effectively suppress weeds while maintaining an attractive appearance. Leptinella is a great choice for filling in gaps between stepping stones or as an underplanting for taller perennials.

This plant also thrives in a variety of conditions but prefers partial shade, making it suitable for woodland gardens or shaded areas of your yard. It is also tolerant of various soil types, provided there is good drainage. This resilience allows it to adapt well to different environments, ensuring robust growth with minimal maintenance.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, this perennial is also drought-tolerant once established, making it a practical choice for sustainable gardening. Its ability to withstand dry spells helps conserve water while maintaining a healthy garden.
