Mazus pumilio (White Swamp Mazus)

Mazus pumilio, commonly known as White Swamp Mazus, is a charming low-growing perennial valued for its delicate white flowers and lush carpet-forming foliage. Naturally found in moist environments, this adaptable groundcover spreads quickly to create a dense, vibrant mat that helps suppress weeds while softening the edges of ponds, pathways, and garden beds. Its attractive blooms appear above the foliage during the warmer months, adding subtle beauty while attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.

Ideal for rain gardens, wetlands, and consistently moist landscapes, White Swamp Mazus thrives in damp, fertile soils but also performs well in containers and shaded garden borders where moisture is readily available. Easy to establish and requiring minimal maintenance, this versatile perennial is an excellent choice for creating naturalistic plantings and enhancing biodiversity in the garden.
