Description
Blue Star Flower is a stunning perennial that thrives in Massachusetts gardens, producing delicate clusters of powder blue, star-shaped blooms in late spring. Its olive-green, pointed foliage adds texture to garden beds, borders, and cut flower arrangements. As the seasons change, the leaves transition into a brilliant golden yellow, creating a striking autumn display. This low-maintenance, native plant blends beautifully with a variety of garden styles, adding color and interest throughout the year.
Blue Star Flower is highly resistant to deer, making it a great choice for naturalizing and woodland gardens. While it requires minimal care, occasional pruning helps maintain its mounded shape and encourage healthy growth. Its medium-textured foliage pairs well with both finer and coarser plants, allowing for dynamic garden compositions. A reliable and hardy perennial, Blue Star Flower enhances any Massachusetts landscape with its seasonal beauty.
