Product Overview
Lizard's Tail (Saururus cernuus)
The bright green heart shaped foliage is accented with 4"-6" long spikes of fragrant white flowers in early summer. The shape and size of the blooms are reminicient of a lizard's tail (we don't know who tough of that, but it really does if you are an expert in lizard anatomy, and it is a lot more attractive than is sounds!). Lizard's Tail is shade tolerant, easy to grow and winters well. Multiplies by underground runners. US native.
