Yerba Mansa
Anemopsis californica
For a lush, tropical effect, plant a mass of Yerba Mansa as groundcover. The large, aromatic, deep green leaves provide a dramatic contrast to most other native plants. It will thrive in ponds or wetlands. Spreads by underground runners. Prefers part sun to shade, but can take sun with ample moisture. Best to cut it back in late winter, during dormant period.
