Bog Rosemary


Day 175: Yeah, yeah...I know it's pink, but once those obnoxiously coloured flowers fall off, Bog Rosemary's beautiful silvery grey-green foliage will be a delightful addition to my garden. Known also as Andromeda, Bog Rosemary is not related to the spice. In fact, it contains toxins which may cause a variety of unpleasant reactions if ingested. As the name implies, this mounding ground-cover prefers moist soil, and was therefore a good choice for the buttercup-infested north side of my carport.
