Occasionally called Prairie Everlasting for its dependable, easily grown nature, Antennaria neglecta is a designer's dream plant for successfully applying a groundcover to tricky, full sun sites with drought prone soils. This North American, low-growing native perennial forms spreading mats of soft grey-green foliage that are naturally well adapted to dry, sandy, and nutrient-poor soils. Small clusters of fuzzy white flowers emerge in late April and last well into June, providing subtle seasonal interest while serving as an important larval host for American lady butterflies. Prairie Everlasting, also called Field Pussytoes, is particularly valuable for ecological restoration work, green roofs, dry meadow plantings, and low-input sites where turf alternatives are desired. Antennaria neglecta handles drought, erosion-prone soils, and exposed conditions with ease once established. An understated but highly functional native species for resilient landscape applications.
