    Liatris Common Name Gayfeather Or Blazing Star

    Widely grown as a commercial cut flower, this is selected from one of our native prairie wildflowers. Plants form a low clump of grassy-looking leaves, bearing tall spikes of bright magenta-purple flowers beginning in midsummer.

    Very useful in the sunny border, meadow garden or in containers.

    Drought tolerant and attractive to butterflies.

    Clumps may be easily divided every 3 to 4 years in the spring. Plants may need to be staked.
