Scutellaria tournefortii

 
Scutellaria tournefortii
skullcap
Common name skullcap
Family lamiaceae
Life cycle perennial (Z4-8)
Flowers white/violet (summer)
Size 24"

White flowers with a violet-tipped hood appear on pairs along upright stalks, whispier than other skullcaps I've grown. Native to Europe.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
