Product Details

Heartleaf Skullcap

Scutellaria ovata

Heartleaf Skullcap is a standout Texas native valued for its velvety, silver-toned foliage and reliable spring bloom. Its heart-shaped leaves create a dense, attractive mat through the cooler months, then in late spring it sends up upright spikes of vivid violet-blue flowers that draw attention from across the landscape. At maturity, this perennial reaches 2 feet in height and spreads 1 foot, forming a soft-textured groundcover that brightens shaded or lightly filtered areas. Its unique coloration and seasonal rhythm make it a great choice for naturalized plantings, cottage-style beds, or native landscapes.
