Allyson Mexican Heather Cuphea

Allyson Mexican Heather reads as texture first, with tiny leaves and small blooms creating a soft, airy layer across the plant. The lavender flowers appear scattered throughout, giving a light, continuous color rather than bold focal blooms. Its growth stays low and gently spreading, making it useful for filling space without drawing too much attention. Reaching about 12 to 18 inches tall and spreading 16 to 18 inches wide at maturity, it forms a fine, even presence that works well in borders, edging, and containers.

Allyson Mexican Heather thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 9 through 11, it provides soft seasonal color and a delicate, textured look in Texas landscapes.
