Description

The listing, Organic Blazing Star ✽ LIATRIS ✽ 10 Seeds has ended.

These are seeds from my purple & white mixed LIATRIS plants. These are valuable landscape plants, as they are a U.S. native, drought tolerant, attract butterflies and hummingbirds, and stay where you plant them. The flowers are numerous on tall stalks, opening from the top, down. They do reproduce well and have never become weedy if left to naturalize. They prefer a sunny site, but will grow in part shade. I believe the "strong shall survive" in my garden. You will appreciate my motto!
