Unknown and underutilized, this moisture loving perennial will light up the garden in late summer and early autumn just when the landscape is crying out for color. This selection is stiffly upright growing and ideal for grouping in organic soil areas or moist areas in partial shade areas. Dense, squatty pyramids of buds form at the top of the stem in August and open late in the month exposing white, snapdragon-like flowers with just a touch of pink. You'll love how this plant grows and thrives in moisture while your landscape's native bees and butterflies will love its nectar food possibilities and, even birds will use the dried stems of this plant for nesting.
