Agalinis maritima, commonly called saltmarsh false foxglove, is an annual herbaceous plant.
It is a halophytic, obligate wetland species found in the eastern Atlantic seaboard from Nova Scotia to Texas, extending further south towards the Lucayan Archipelago and the Greater Antilles.
[5] In Maine, it was most often found in high (upper) salt marsh where slight depressions have sparse vegetative cover and low competition from species such as Spartina patens.
[6] Sometimes confused with Agalinis purpurea, saltmarsh false foxglove can be recognized from its fleshy, obtuse leaves.
[7][8] It has pink or purple flowers arranged in short racemes; the blooms usually fall off within a day.
