Description
Blue Mistflower, also known as Eupatorium coelestinum, brings a soft, airy texture to late-summer gardens with its blue-violet blooms. This perennial thrives in moist, fertile soil and is ideal for Massachusetts gardeners seeking bold summer color in full sun or part shade. Blue Mistflower spreads readily, making it an excellent ground cover in wild gardens or naturalized areas. It blooms from July through September, attracting pollinators.
Blue Mistflower is perfect for creating a lush meadow effect and can be kept compact by trimming taller stems in midsummer. While vigorous, it’s easy to manage and a great choice for filling in spaces where other plants struggle. Blue Mistflower adds vibrant charm and is especially effective in borders or rain gardens. Blue Mistflower thrives in the varied conditions found across Massachusetts.
