Опис
Plant in moist, slightly acidic, average to well-drained soil in partial shade to full sun; blue star is a native perennial that earns its keep in three seasons — in late spring with starry pale blue flowers on arching stems, in summer with clean willow-like foliage that remains attractive and disease-free all season, and most dramatically in autumn with spectacular golden-yellow fall color that rivals the finest maples. It is one of the most structural and elegant native perennials available, naturally found in moist woodland edges and stream banks. It tolerates light to moderate shade well. The deer-resistant foliage contains a milky latex. Do not over-fertilize; lean conditions produce compact, self-supporting plants. Cut back lightly after bloom to maintain tidy habit.

Plant divisions in spring in moist, slightly acidic, well-drained soil in partial shade to full sun; do not fertilize — rich soils produce floppy plants. The milky sap may irritate skin.
