A hardy native perennial that forms bushy clumps topped with striking purple-blue flowers that bloom in mid to late summer. It thrives in partial sun and well-drained soils, tolerating drought, poor soils, and rocky conditions.
This easy-to-grow plant supports pollinators like bumblebees and hummingbirds and works well in rain gardens, borders, or naturalized areas. Deadheading can encourage a second bloom, or you can let the seedheads develop for self-sown seedlings the following year.
