One of the most popular questions we had at the Uxbridge Garden Tour today was “what is that plant?!?”
Well…. This is the Cup Plant!
The name comes from the natural reservoir that forms between the leaves, and when it rains, that “cup” fills with water. Creating a communal water dish for all types of critters to come have a sip from! We’re talking bees, butterflies, birds, chipmunks, and even you, if you’d like! 😉
A native perennial that grows quite tall (up to 12 feet) and attracts all sorts of wildlife!
We appreciate all of you who came to visit our suburban homestead gardens and our shop this weekend,
We love you, plant nerds!!
