Lysimachia vulgaris (Common Loosestrife)

Lysimachia vulgaris (Common Loosestrife) is a native loosestrife, not strictly a true marginal plant but will happily tolerate growing in shallow water provided that the leaves are not submerged. However, it does best in damp rich soil where it can spread quite rapidly. Yellow flowers spring from the leaf axils, providing nectar for pollinators.

This plant will rarely be available in potted form by mail order direct from the website but is usually available at the nursery in small numbers. If you are interested in obtaining it by mail order, please email us and we can often oblige. An additional packing and carriage charge may be necessary.
