Liatris spicata (Gayfeather)(Blazing Star)

Liatris spicata – Dense Blazing Star

Dense Blazing Star sends up bold, bottlebrush-like spikes packed with fluffy purple blooms that open from the top down, creating a dramatic summer display. Each vertical wand becomes a pollinator magnet, buzzing with butterflies, bees, and even the occasional hummingbird. The fine, grass-like foliage stays tidy at the base while the 12" flower spikes bring height, color, and motion to sunny borders and wildflower plantings. Excellent for cutting gardens and delightfully deer resistant.

· Tall spires of dense, fluffy purple flowers in mid to late summer
· Top-down blooming for a striking, extended show
· Loved by butterflies and bees and great for bouquets
· Deer resistant and easy to grow in full sun
