In addition to our native trees, shrubs, vines, and perennials – we also have native annual plants.

They start and complete their life cycle in the same growing year. This one is blooming now – it is called forked blue curls (Trichostema dichotomum). It is fairly well distributed throughout the state, and there are couple of other species as well. It is rather small, generally only 12-18 inches tall and is found on dry, open woodland edges. Bees like it. . . . #nativeplants #nativeplantsofgeorgia #gardening #pollinatorplants #pollinatorgardening #nativehabitat #wildlifegardening #plants #georgia #gonative #spring
