| It's a low, mat forming plant that grows right above the high tide line on Marrowstone Island and on the northwest Washington Coast (probably some places in between too). It looks a lot like a Hebe with small green leaves - it's quite appealing. I haven't seen the flowers. Any ideas? |

| Honckenya peploides.... that's it. Thanks! How did you know of this plant and how has it escaped so many people's notice??? |

| I finally got one right. Yeah! I started getting interested in natives about 5 years ago since I manage to kill most everything I try to grow. This one is lovely, but it needs lean sand, and I have clay. I hope it works for you. Good Luck. |
