False Indigo - Australis, 1 Pack
Baptisia australis
Elegant clumps of blue‑green, trifoliate foliage send up tall, sturdy racemes of rich indigo‑blue pea‑like flowers in late spring to early summer. These dramatic blooms fade gracefully to lavender, followed by ornamental jet‑black seed pods that persist through fall and add winter interest. A robust, long‑lived native perennial, it thrives in full sun to part shade with well‑drained, average to dry soil and boasts deep taproots, making it drought‑tolerant and low‑maintenance. Deer and rabbits avoid it, and it supports pollinators and native butterflies—making it a great choice for borders, meadow-inspired plantings, or cottage gardens.
