Tradescantia ohioensis
Ohio spiderwort
Ohio spiderwort is native to New England despite the name, and forms attractive perennial clumps with three-petaled flowers that bloom in late spring, and if cut back, again in the fall. Tolerant of drought once established, this species makes an interesting, long-blooming addition to borders, meadows, and open woodlands.
