Wall Germander

Teucrium chamaedrys | Wall Germander

Wall Germander is a hardy, evergreen perennial shrub prized for its compact form, aromatic foliage, and charming summer flowers. It forms neat, low mounds of dark green, scalloped leaves that emit a pleasant scent when brushed. In summer, short spikes of rosy-purple blooms appear, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. With its tidy growth habit, Wall Germander is a favorite for edging, knot gardens, rock gardens, and low-maintenance borders.

Growing Teucrium chamaedrys

• Water: Low water requirements once established; water occasionally during prolonged dry periods.

• Maintenance: Trim lightly after flowering to maintain its compact shape; can be sheared more heavily in early spring if needed.

• Hardiness: USDA zones 5–9; tolerant of drought and heat once established.

• Wildlife: Highly attractive to bees and butterflies.
