Baptisia (False Indigo)
Color Name: Blue Bubbly
'Blue Bubbly' is a captivating perennial plant renowned for its striking, vivid blue flowers and elegant, upright growth habit. This cultivar is a member of the Baptisia genus, known for its hardiness and low-maintenance nature. 'Blue Bubbly' typically produces an abundance of beautiful flower spikes that emerge in late spring to early summer, creating a stunning display in garden.
Baptisia is easy to grow and will thrive with little maintenance. There are many potential applications in the landscape including meadow plantings, as a backdrop in borders, or as a specimen.
Growing Tips: Baptisia grows best in full sun, though it tolerates light shade. If grown in too much shade, plants may require staking. Baptisia is easily grown in poor to average soil that is well-drained. Once established, it is moderately drought tolerant because of its tough, deep taproot. This perennial native may take a couple of seasons to become established, but is very long-lived once mature. Avoid disturbing established clumps.
