Leptinella Platt's Black
Leptinella x 'Platt's Black'
Platt's Black Brass Buttons
Beautiful bronze- black, fern-like foliage creep along on top and underneath the soil to form a soft, fuzzy mat under your feet. Small yellow button flowers top in spring.  Plant in a woodland setting over mini daffodils for a natural look or line a wire basket with it and add annuals to create a one-of-a-kind container. Great look for entryways, courtyards, pathways or as lawn substitute.
 

This plant is not available for on line purchase for 2011.
Please check your local garden center for current availability.

Tips from Fran
Leptinella Platt’s Black is the king of the Leptinellas. It has the color, it has the swank and swagger and it has the feel! It creeps, it roams, it’s colorful and it makes everywhere you put it look every prettier. Need I say more?
