'Espresso'
This
woodland native will charm you not only with its propensity to
bloom, but with its deep, dark foliage that adds spice to the
landscape throughout the growing season. ‘Espresso’ has a dense
spreading form that works well in the front of any planting and is
very tolerant of partial or even full shade conditions. Its
foliage is deeply cut and a dark red-brown color that serves as a
wonderful backdrop for loads of small pink flowers that bloom from
mid-may through late June. Native bees and butterflies use
'Espresso' as a nectar source while small garden critters find its
dense, spreading form provides outstanding cover. Plant it in
groups and enjoy the color. show.
