No reviews yet
Product Code: SAN-TEN-PURPUR
Shipping: Calculated at Checkout
$8.99

Taller late flowering perennial with transparent look.

Grows to 5-6' tall x 2-3' wide, clumps of basal leaves and tall flowering stems, nearly leaf-less, often leaning into one direction.

This plant looks very airy, but still structural, and has some enchanting power for many people.

Blooms in July to August/September, purple flowers age to dark brown, and persist on the plant for a while.

Average soils, adaptable to mostly any soil, that doesn't dry out (loam, clayish, sandy or drained). Medium-moist, medium to slightly wet or seasonally wet soils (or even flooded for short period of time).

Hardy in zones 5 to 8. Attracts butterflies and bees.

It does acceptably well in hot and humid climate, but it's better to find cooler spot in the garden or place with more constant moisture.

This is perennial from medium-moist to moist meadow, so the best is to associate it with similar needs plants, native or introduced like Anemone japonica, Asclepias incarnata, Aster novae-angliae, Aster novi-belgii, Cimicifuga, Chelone, Eupatorium, Helenium, Helianthus, Heliopsis, Hemerocallis, Hibiscus, moisture loving Iris (I. sibirica, virginica, versiclor, louisiana), tall cultivars of Phlox ('Jeana', 'Shortwood', 'Robert Poore'), Physostegia, Vernonia, Thalictrum, Veronicastrum or tall grasses like Panicum or Pennisetum.

Pot Size : square 3.5" x 5" deep pot
