Scutellaria ovata (Heartleaf Skullcap) Spring flowering Also known as Texas HuisacheHeartleaf Skullcap is a shade loving perennial with velvety, gray leaves and lavender blooms in the spring. It likes to be on the dry side and prefers part shade to shade. The blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds. It dies back in the hottest part of the summer but comes back reliably in cooler weather. Heartleaf Skullcap spreads by underground, fleshy roots can fill a space in a short time, making it a good plant for hard to fill areas.
