Gradually the leaves change to green and are followed by a good show of blue flowers in late spring. Plant along pond or stream edges or in consistently moist garden sites for best leaf color. Grows 2-3' tall. Brought to us by the magical gardens of Mt. Cuba and our friends at North Creek Nurseries, Inc. Plant 24" apart.

We carefully schedule shipments to ensure your plants spend as little time in transit as possible. Most orders ship via UPS Monday through Wednesday, directly from our greenhouses. For nearby destinations, we may occasionally ship Thursday or Friday when delivery is expected before the weekend. Orders that would otherwise remain in transit over the weekend will be held until the following shipping week.
Each plant is carefully wrapped in protective brown paper and packed with excelsior wood wool, a biodegradable material made from thin fibers of aspen wood. This eco-friendly packaging helps keep your plants secure during transit while being kind to the environment.
