Ruellia Repens

Ruellia repens is a low-growing, spreading herb native to tropical regions of the Americas. It features dark green, ovate leaves that are often covered in fine hairs. The plant produces small, tubular flowers in shades of blue or purple, which attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. It is commonly used in landscaping for its ornamental value and ability to thrive in shaded areas. Despite its beauty, it can become invasive in certain environments if not managed properly.
