Perennial
Beautiful indigo spikes of flowers that last a very long time.
The calyx is darker even still, making for a gorgeous, elegant bloom.
Grow in well drained soil
Full sun
Deer resistant
Pollinator and hummingbird magnet
Great cut flower
Low water needs
Drought tolerant
Pair with Achillea, airy grasses, Eryngiums, and Echinacea
I have not grown this from seed yet, but suggest winter sowing with about 1/3 perlite mixed into the seed starting mix. It is fully hardy, just doesn’t like too much water.
