About Nama lobbii A.Gray
Nama lobbii A.Gray is a rhizomatous perennial herb that forms dense mats of glandular hairy to woolly foliage, and typically spreads to over one meter wide. Its sticky, hairy oval leaves grow up to six centimeters long; they are arranged alternately along branching stems, and also grow in clusters at stem forks. The funnel-shaped flowers are just under one centimeter wide, have five rounded lobes, and range in color from deep pink to purple. This plant develops extensive root networks that can grow up to five meters in length each year, and these roots can sprout new individual plants. Nama lobbii has been recommended for use as groundcover in revegetation projects within its native mountain ranges.
