Many Gentians are somewhat fussy plants, but this species is so foolproof that any gardener will succeed with it. Plants form a low, bushy clump of large dark green leaves, bearing small bright blue flowers that are held along arching stems, in late summer. Nice edging plant for the border or woodland. Prefers an evenly moist soil. Clumps may be easily divided in early spring.
