Mazus reptans (Chinese marshflower) - Marginal Pond Plants - BP081

Mazus reptans 'Chinese Marshflower', commonly known as creeping mazus, is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial with small, bright green leaves forming a dense, spreading carpet. In late spring to early summer, it produces small, tubular violet-blue flowers with yellow throats, creating a charming and delicate display ideal for groundcover, rockeries, or pond edges.

The flowers attract bees and other pollinators, giving the plant ecological value. Its creeping habit and preference for moist, fertile soil make it perfect for damp borders, rock gardens, or between stepping stones where early summer colour and low-maintenance groundcover are desired.
