Crosswort is one of the best fast-growing and low-spreading, flowering ground covers!
Commonly called Caucasian Crosswort, Creeping Crosswort, and Large-Styled Crosswort, this low-spreading, mat-forming, semi-evergreen ground cover has unique, narrow-leaved, deep-green, aromatic foliage foliage and blooms with globular clusters of fragrant tiny flowers. Crosswort blooms from summer to fall, and its scented flowers attract bees and butterflies.
It is also well suited for borders, rock gardens, mass planting, and containers. Crosswort grows best in full sun or partial shade requiring moderately fertile, moist, but well drained soil. Creeping Crosswort tolerates drought and poor soil conditions once established.
