Description
Bilberry Ice Spiderwort is a long-blooming perennial that brings soft color and graceful texture to the garden from early through late summer. Clusters of crisp white flowers with delicate lavender overtones emerge from rich purple buds, creating an elegant display above arching, grassy green foliage. Fast growing and easy to maintain, Bilberry Ice Spiderwort is especially effective when planted in groups, adding brightness and movement to borders, woodland gardens, and naturalized landscapes.
Thriving in part sun to full shade, Bilberry Ice Spiderwort prefers evenly moist, well-drained soil and adapts well to a variety of garden conditions, including urban environments. Its nectar-rich flowers attract butterflies while deer generally leave it alone. As the foliage may go dormant later in summer, pairing Bilberry Ice Spiderwort with late-season blooming perennials helps maintain continuous garden interest. This dependable perennial is an excellent choice for mass plantings, border edging, and woodland gardens.
