False Indigo

Commonly known as False Indigo, varieties are usually blue. However, Pink Lemonade is a little different! Unique bicoloured flowers start out soft yellow and age to raspberry pink and mauve lavender. WOW!

Blooming late spring to early summer, flower stems are sturdy and held above upright, full and bushy blue-green foliage. Plants will grow to over 3 feet, so great for the back or middle of a bed. If left untrimmed, the plant forms interesting seedpods that turn charcoal black in the fall and persist into winter. Baptisia will attract scores of butterflies and hummingbirds. Easy to grow and long lived in full sun.
