Mistflower - Conoclinium coelestinum

This is unlikely to be able to be restocked, sorry.

This is in a square pint pot.

Formerly known as Eupatorium coelestinum.

Features: The delicate blooms may be pink, lavender or light blue and form in clusters 1-3 inches wide. It is a showy, low maintenance plant that attracts many pollinators and feeds moth caterpillars. Its bitter foliage is deer resistant.

It is similar to Boneset and Snakeroot in its late blooming time and preference to spread readily by seed, as well as rhizomes, when happy. It is native to Southern Illinois and introduced to the Chicago area.

Light: Full sun to part shade (will do full shade, but stays shorter with fewer blooms)

Soil: Moist to Medium, with organic matter

Height: 1 - 2.5 ft 

Blooms: August to October
