Chelone – Tiny Tortuga 2 Pack
Add some over-the-top charm to your landscape with Chelone Tiny Tortuga, a compact turtlehead variety that produces clusters of pink, snapdragon-like blooms from summer to fall. Its deep green to bronze, glossy foliage provides a perfect backdrop for the unique flowers, making it an eye-catching addition to borders, containers, or shaded woodland and wetland gardens.
Tiny Tortuga thrives in moist, hummus soils and partial shade, making it ideal for areas with dappled sunlight and wetter conditions. Plus, with its compact habit and late-season blooms, it brings structure and color when most other perennials have finished flowering!
