Overview
Specifications
- Position: full sun
- Soil: well-drained soil
- Rate of growth: average
- Flowering period: July to September
- Hardiness: fully hardyThriving in poor dry soils (but tolerant of most provided they have good drainage), this native perennial makes an excellent addition to wildflower meadows and prairie style planting schemes. The large purple, thistle-like flower heads act as a magnet to pollinating insects and the subsequent seed-heads may attract finches into the garden. A variable but always attractive plant, it self-seeds freely and will practically thrive on neglect.
