    Details

    Early Figwort (Scrophularia lanceolata) may not turn heads with its small green-maroon blooms, but it's a hidden gem for pollinators. Known historically as "honeyplant" by beekeepers, this nectar-rich native perennial draws in native bees, honeybees, butterflies, and even hummingbirds—making it one of the most ecologically valuable plants you can add to your garden.

    This 32-plant pack is perfect for supporting pollinators in sunny or partially shaded areas. Though its flowers are subtle, they bloom early and steadily, and their unusual color offers up-close interest in naturalistic or habitat-focused plantings.

    Early Figwort grows upright and blends easily with showier species, playing a quiet but crucial role in a biodiverse garden.

    Why Choose a Tray of Early Figwort?

    • High nectar production – A true favorite of bees and hummingbirds.
    • Versatile & adaptable – Grows well in sun or part shade.
    • Quietly beautiful – Unique flowers with up-close appeal.
