FREE: Missouri Ironweed (Vernonia missurica) - 20 seeds - Free Shipping!

The listing, Missouri Ironweed (Vernonia missurica) - 20 seeds - Free Shipping! has ended.

This auction is for 20 seeds of Missouri Ironweed. A member of the Aster family, ironweed blooms in late summer and is a favorite of bees and butterflies! Easily grown in average, medium to wet soils in full sun. Although it is mostly seen growing in the wild in moist soils, with tolerance for periodic flooding, it performs quite well in cultivation in average garden soils. Plants generally grow taller in moist soils. Overall plant height may be reduced by cutting back stems in late spring. Easily grown from seed.

This ironweed is best distinguished from other ironweeds by the usually greater number of disk florets per flower and by the hairy stems and leaf undersides.
