This blue star is a southern US native and quickly reaches 3' h. It is a great addition to any garden and has great seasonal interest with blue flower clusters in the spring, fine foliage in the summer, and golden fall color before dying back in the winter. This variety thrives in full sun.

Grows 1' - 1.5' h x 1' - 2' sp
In late spring to early summer, the stems are topped with clusters of star-shaped blue flowers. The foliage remains attractive in summer and turns yellow in fall. Grow in average moist but well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Mature plants are fairly drought-tolerant. Use as a border plant or in groups in the perennial garden or woodland edges.
