Barbara's buttons
Marshallia grandiflora
Overview
Barbara’s Buttons (Marshallia grandiflora) is a showy wildflower native to the southeastern United States, most often found in disturbed woodlands and savannas. It produces clusters of white, four-petaled flowers with yellow stamens from April to July, and these flowers are surrounded by attractive blue-green foliage. This species is deer and rabbit resistant, and as a result is an ideal choice for gardeners looking to add vibrant color to their landscapes with minimal maintenance. Barbara’s Buttons grows best in full sun sites with moist, well-drained soil.
