Additional Information: Frogfruit is a fast-spreading native groundcover that thrives in lawns, roadsides, and open areas, forming a dense, low-growing mat. Its small white to pinkish flowers attract butterflies, bees, and other pollinators. This plant is drought-tolerant, withstands foot traffic, and adapts to poor soils, making it a great turf alternative in low-maintenance landscapes. Phyla nodiflora provides valuable wildlife habitat while requiring minimal upkeep.
