Description

This eastern U.S. native requires at least a half day's direct sunlight and rich garden soil. It should be placed toward the back, as it will be 3-6' when blooming. From July through September, bright, purplish-pink flowers are abundant in large panicles at the top of stems. -Holland WIldflower Farm
