Chelone obliqua Tiny Tortuga™ 'Armitpp02' PP25350

turtlehead

	Compact, great in containers
	Large, deep pink flowers
	Glossy, dark green foliage
	Low maintenance
	Most heat + humidity tolerant of Chelone

A tiny turtlehead with all the flower power of its taller brothers, this native cultivar features uniquely shaped, hot pink blooms atop lustrous dark green leaves with a bronzy sheen. Flowers reminiscent of turtles' mouths persist from mid-summer into fall, a favorite of butterflies but distasteful to deer. Its very compact habit is a great choice for mixed containers, or let it spread ever so slowly in the landscape along pond and stream edges, rain gardens or perennial borders.
