In mid- to late spring, it sends up short stems topped with soft lavender-purple, daisy-like flowers that brighten woodland edges, shaded borders, and cottage-style plantings. Its mat-forming growth makes it a resilient, wildlife-friendly alternative to traditional groundcovers—especially in dry or challenging shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"842\" data-end=\"1148\"\u003eBeyond its beauty, ‘Lynnhaven Carpet’ provides early nectar for native bees and small butterflies, and its semi-evergreen foliage offers winter texture and erosion control. It’s tolerant of drought once established, resists browsing from deer and rabbits, and thrives in a wide range of well-drained soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"842\" data-end=\"1148\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1128\" data-end=\"1136\"\u003eSpecial Note\u003c\/strong\u003e: Though ‘Lynnhaven Carpet’ is a named selection, it is derived from a naturally occurring species (\u003cem data-start=\"1285\" data-end=\"1306\"\u003eErigeron pulchellus\u003c\/em\u003e) and maintains much of the original plant’s ecological integrity.
