Ohio Spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiensis) 3-pack of pots
Can’t be shipped.
Ohio Spiderwort has purplish blue blooms in early June. It is taller than the related Prairie Spiderwort. It has a reputation for spreading in gardens quite a bit, and because of that it’s more suited for taller, wild gardens and restorations.
Details

Design Tips
Ohio Spiderwort spreads a lot by seed. Wherever you plant it, expect it to spread by many feet per year. We wouldn’t plant it in smaller, shorter gardens or gardens we wouldn’t want it to spread everywhere. It’s best suited for wild gardens with other aggressive plants. It is pretty in June though, especially next to Golden Alexanders.
Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!

Prairie Phlox
Golden Alexanders
Culver’s Root
Great Blue Lobelia
Prairie Loosestrife
