Littleleaf Pussytoes (Antennaria microphylla) is an extremely hardy and drought tolerant native groundcover that grows naturally all over Utah. It's evergreen foliage grows tight together, forming a carpet-like appearance all year round. Tiny white or pink blossoms appear in the early summer and look like the pads on a kitten's foot. This little plant looks beautiful in rock gardens, along the border of xeric gardens, or in-between pavers and stepping stones, and requires no supplemental irrigation once established. If growing between pavers or stones, flowers can be removed to keep a lower growth habit if desired. Littleleaf Pussytoes will gently spread by stolons, but is not aggressive.
