Snake Herb (Dyschoriste linearis) is a versatile plant that thrives in well-drained, rocky, or sandy soils and adapts well to a variety of soil types. Preferring low water use, it flourishes in full sun to partial shade. Snake Herb serves as a lovely ground cover option with its pale lavender to purple, two-lipped flowers, which bloom in late spring and can repeat in late summer if moisture is sufficient. Its fibrous root system makes it a hardy perennial for Texas landscapes, particularly for rocky-grassy slopes or silty flats.
