We obviously love flowers, but there’s nothing that gets us more excited than great basal foliage, especially when it emerges in late winter. Such is the case with the little-known Southeast native, Packera x memmingeri. It’s so little known that JLBG images are the only live plant photos you’ll find on-line. In the wild, it grows in light shade/part sun on rocky outcrops. It also has a lovely floral show, which we feature later, but we look forward to getting this great native propagated and available to share.

I love it! What zones will it grow in, do you think?
That’s a great question, but since it’s completely new to horticulture, we really don’t know. An educated guess would say, at least Zone 6b-8b, but it could possible take much colder temperatures.
