Synonym(s) Scutellaria epilobiifolia Common name marsh skullcap; common skullcap Family lamiaceae Life cycle perennial Flowers blue (summer) Size 1-2' Light Cultural notes moist-wet soil Widely distributed wildflower, found in wet meadows and along streamsides. One-sided flowerstalks with hooded blue flowers. Strappy, slightly serrated leaves. Update: What I'm growing is probably not S. galericulata - the leaf characteristics don't match. I'll update the page when I've got it figured out.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: pond filtration bog
