Anemopsis californica, or Yerba Mansa, is a unique and versatile herbaceous perennial prized for both its ornamental appeal and traditional medicinal uses. Native to the southwestern United States and Mexico, this wetland plant features broad, lance-shaped green leaves and produces elegant white flower clusters with a central cone, resembling a miniature magnolia. As the season progresses, the flowers transition to a deep reddish hue, complementing the vibrant autumn foliage.
Thriving in full sun to partial shade, Anemopsis californica prefers consistently moist or wet soil, making it an excellent choice for riparian restoration, rain gardens, pond margins, and water-wise landscapes. Once established, it develops a robust rhizomatous root system that aids in erosion control and improves soil stability. Beyond its aesthetic value, Yerba Mansa has long been used in herbal medicine for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.
