A selection of one of our native North American wildflowers. Plants form an upright, bushy clump of deep green leaves, bearing showy spikes of white flowers from midsummer through the fall. Excellent for cutting. Spreads to form a big patch, something to keep in mind when placing this in the garden. Prefers rich, moist soil, and will tolerate wet conditions beside a stream or pond. Easily divided every 2 to 3 years in early spring. Clumps usually will need to be staked. Attractive to butterflies.
