Growing & using Fruity Teucrium

Fruity Teucrium,Teucrium cossonii majoricum, in full bloom

Teucrium cossonii majoricum is a member of the same Genus as Germander. This is a hard working group of plants that is very carefree. They tend to be insect free, water saving, and heat tolerant. As you can see this member of the Germander genus is an incredible bloomer.

Fruity Teucrium makes an elegant blooming groundcover. It works well in many different situations, however it is not a ground cover to walk on. It stays short never getting more than about four inches.

Fruity Teucrium hangs out in a basket

This Fruity Teucrium is beautifully cascading down this hanging basket. Compare it to the Heretus Thyme on the left. It is definitely a show stopper both covered in blooms and after bloom.

This plant is occasionally available in plug trays. These trays hold 128 of all the same plant. They are a great low cost way to fill a lot of space. Each cell is 3/4 of inch by an inch. Check here to see if Fruity Teucrium Plug Trays are available.
