How to Prune Lanceleaf Fogfruit?
(Phyla lanceolata)
Lanceleaf Fogfruit, also known as Frogfruit, Northern Frogfruit, Marsh Frogfruit
A perennial herb with creeping habit and clusters of violet blooms, lanceleaf Fogfruit flourishes in moist conditions. Prune to maintain shape and encourage denser foliage by cutting back leggy stems in spring or early summer. Remove spent flowers to promote continuous blooming. Regular pruning improves air circulation and plant health, also preventing overgrowth. Keep tools sanitized to avoid disease spread. When pruning, focus on dead or damaged tissue, which helps stimulate new growth and enhances the plant's vigor.
