Foliage:
Teucrium chamaedrys, or wall germander, is a hardy, drought-tolerant perennial that typically grows to 1-2 feet tall and forms a mounding, dense ground cover. It has shiny, dark green, oval leaves with scalloped edges and square, hairy stems, and blooms in the summer with small, two-lipped pink, purple, or white flowers. It is a versatile plant often used for low hedges, edgings, rock gardens, and pollinator gardens, thriving in full sun and well-drained soil. It has recently been found to have compounds that cause liver toxicity.
