Description

Wild Indigo is a hardy, drought-tolerant perennial perfect for naturalizing in Massachusetts gardens. This shrubby plant produces cheerful clusters of yellow pea-like flowers in late spring and early summer, standing above clover-like gray-green foliage. Wild Indigo adds pollinator-friendly blooms and ornamental seed pods that rattle when mature.

A native plant that thrives in poor, well-drained soils and full sun, Wild Indigo is ideal for low-maintenance landscapes. Its deep root system makes it resilient but slow to establish, so give it space and time to develop. Wild Indigo brings lasting color, structure, and native appeal to Massachusetts perennial gardens.
