Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

'Miss Manner's is a Physotegia cultivar that is less spreading, more upright, a bit shorter (24 to 30 inches tall), and pure white. Tubular flowers form clusters at the stem tips from June through August and even into September. Leaves are green, lance-shaped, and toothed. It is better suited to perennial borders and smaller areas than the species.
