Leptinella

I love this low dish that I found at my local independently owned garden center.  For a couple of years, I had Black Mondo Grass (Ophiopogon planiscapus) growing in it but the squirrels finally dug it up one too many times.

I was looking for something else to try and found Brass Buttons (Leptinella).  I have grown this plant before as a ground cover for a small area and I think it is very charming. 

I planted it with chicken wire, as you so, so hopefully it will grow in peace without interruption from the squirrels!

Have a beautiful day!
