Dotted Blazing Star (Liatris punctata) 12-pack of plugs
Can be shipped.
What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. Read more here.
Dotted Blazing Star is one of the shortest blazing stars, with short but striking flower stems. It likes drier, sandier soil, making it perfect for rock or sand gardens. It’s a great plant for planting next to sidewalks and walking paths, since it won’t flop over. We like it next to other short, dry prairie plants like Prairie Smoke, Pasque Flower, and Blue Grama Grass.
