Because of this discontinuous range, taxonomists are divided on the number of species in Laurentia (I'd like to find some undivided taxonomists some day). Many members of laurentia have been split off into other genera including isotoma, porterella, palmerella, solenopsis, wimmerella, and pratia.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing Laurentia in the Garden\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eLaurentia is in the Campanulaceae family and is closely related to Lobelia.

Blue star creeper is an adorable little plant that makes a 1\" tall mat of round green leaves and equally tiny light blue flowers in spring. In a slightly moist site, which laurentia prefers, expect a 12-18\" spread by the end of the first season and a 6-8' patch in five years. For us, laurentia is evergreen to about 15 degrees F and becomes deciduous at lower temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21001044101,"sku":"1355","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Laurentia-fluviatilis.i-1355.s-65298.r-1_3699f1bd-3c58-4952-a48d-70a71b1627a0.jpg?v=1790095388"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/collections\/Laurentia-fluviatilis-1900x350.jpg?v=1685978198","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/collections\/laurentia.oembed","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
