Where can I buy Horseherb in the DFW area? I live in Flower Mound but didn't know any nursery who might have it. Thanks.

It's a weed-like plant in my yard. Perhaps I should cultivate it for sale. :)

Right now North Haven Gardens has it in 4" pots. It's native texas groundcover that can take foot traffic and mowing.

Thank you! I knew it was a native and Howard's last newsletter made it sound interesting.

It's not easy to get, even for nurseries. Not many wholesale growers out there. I just checked and we (North Haven) is currently sold out. Check back towards the end of next week.

Sandih, do you think it is pretty easy to cultivate if pulled together into a single bed? I have it all over my yard, and could be persuaded to experiment with collecting and concentrating some of it and watching to see if seed collection is possible.

I honestly have never tried growing it from seed. Give it a shot!
