Glandularia canadensis, commonly called rose mock vervain,[1] is a species of flowering plant in the verbena family (Verbenaceae). It is native to the eastern and south-central areas of the United States .[2] This species is widely cultivated for its ornamental appearance, and naturalized populations have been established outside its native range, such as in the northeastern U.S.[3][4]
Its natural habitat is in sunny areas such as glades, forest openings, and on bluffs.[4][5] It is tolerant of dry conditions.[6] In some areas, the presence of Glandularia canadensis is indicative of high-quality natural communities.[5]
It is a perennial that produces purple flowers in the spring, which can persist until fall.[4]
