Description: Katie Ruellia Purple Ruellia brittoniana 'Katie' Purple flowers Clumping ground cover Blooms through the warm times of the year Use as an accent piece in any landscape Ideal for mass planting, borders and sunny slopes Katie Ruellia or Ruellia brittoniana 'Katie,' is an improved variety and able to bloom beautiful purple flowers almost all year long. We like this dwarf variety because they feature low, spreading mounds of narrow, dark green foliage. The combination of the flowers, grass-like texture, and green foliage make it a perfect filler to add color and interest to barren, dry area in the yard. As a bonus, these are a non-invasive variety, so they are also suitable for mass planting. We also like to plant them in borders or on a sunny slope. Thanks to their compact form, these Purple Ruellias are an excellent choice for use as a groundcover in tighter, narrower spaces and they also look great when planted in pots or planters! Katie Ruellia is a low water use plant, and are drought tolerant with little to moderate watering needs once established. This Ruellia variety thrives in full sun or partial shade exposures and is durable and easy to care for plants. These are a favorite for anyone that does not have a green thumb and still wants to have a thriving, colorful plant in their yard! They have a moderate growth rate. Long bloom season, showy flowers and a variety of uses make Katie Ruellia a welcome addition to any landscape. PURPLE Dwarf Mexican Petunia Katie Ruellia Plant Perennial Ground Cover 1 Gallon.
