Eupatorium dubium ‘Little Joe’


Dwarf Joe-Pye Weed

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.207.570


The perfect size for smaller gardens, this is the first truly compact selection of Joe-Pye Weed. It forms a bushy and substantial upright mound of coarse dark-green leaves, bearing enormous umbrella-like heads of rosy-purple flowers in late summer. A magnet to butterflies, suitable for planting in moist areas. The stature of this selection is ideal as a focal point in a large container or tub. Dried seedheads offer good winter interest, so consider leaving them until early spring. USPP#16122: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
