Description
The Blue Mistflower is a vibrant, fast-growing perennial that thrives in Massachusetts gardens, perfect for attracting late-season butterflies. With its striking blue spider-like flowers, it blooms from mid-summer to mid-fall, adding color and life to any landscape. This plant's dense, heart-shaped foliage remains green throughout the season, making it a great choice for a groundcover or border plant. It’s ideal for creating a naturalized garden and can quickly spread, making it perfect for filling in empty spaces.
A Massachusetts favorite, Blue Mistflower thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. This perennial grows to 32 inches tall and spreads 3 feet, requiring little maintenance other than a spring cleanup. While it can spread rapidly, gardeners can easily manage this with occasional trimming. Its ability to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies adds to its appeal as a low-maintenance, wildlife-friendly plant for your garden.
