Joe Pye Weed - Eutrochium purpureum
Joe Pye Weed - Eutrochium purpureum
Native- Perennial
Deep mauve flowers on top of upright stems bloom earlier than most Joe Pye Weeds and even continue into the fall, offering a reliable food source for hungry pollinators.
Serrated dark green leaves grow to 12 inches long beneath clumps of vanilla-scented flower clusters. Compact and hardy, this native cultivar maxes out under 3 feet tall, great for small spaces or the front of a garden. Will turn your garden into a pollinator paradise. Once the blooms fade in late fall, they give way to winter seed heads.
