This tough yet graceful native wildflower, which is widespread through eastern and central North America, was included in Carl Linnaeus’ Species Plantarum (1753) and in John Clayton’s Flora Virginica (1762). An attractive groundcover that bears showy white flowers in late spring, Tall Thimbleweed is tolerant of deer, drought and deep shade, and naturalizes in many areas of the garden including rocky slopes, borders and woodlands.
