Liatris White Blazing Star Bulbs
Liatris White Blazing Star is a native wildflower that brings striking vertical interest to the garden with its tall spikes of button-shaped white blossoms. Blooming in July and August, these flowers are rich in nectar and pollen, attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The subtly fragrant blooms are also a favorite for floral arrangements. This cold-hardy, clump-forming perennial thrives in full sun to part shade with average to moist, well-drained soils. It's a low-maintenance choice that tolerates heat, humidity, and drought once established, making it ideal for pollinator gardens and perennial borders.
