Acaena inermis ‘Purpurea’ at Digging Dog
Purple Goose Leaf
Goose Leaf
Our selections of this enchanting,
ground-hugging evergreen from New Zealand feature
diminutive leaves with a ferny delicacy. Lifting on short
stalks above the foliage, globe-shaped seed
heads—small thornless “burrs”—are colored a brownish red. Adapted to almost any well drained location, plant it as a cover for your bulb bed, situate it along pathways, perch it on a garden wall or let it creep around paving stones. Acaena inermis ‘Purpurea’
Colored in a purple-gray shade reminiscent of
overripe plums, this Acaena’s delicate,
low-lying foliage warmly interweaves a planting of
Dianthus ‘Mendlesham Maid’,
Scutellaria ‘Texas Rose’ and
Carex glauca above our rock wall.
Blooms June–July. Size: 6" high & spreading; hardy to zone 6. Acaena inermis ‘Purpurea’ (P-1095) Each $6.75
