Blueberry Sundae' has vibrant indigo blue spikes. The plants have an upright, compact habit and attractive blue-green foliage. The cultivars of the Decadence Series from breeder Hans Hansen were selected specifically for their shorter, more compact habit and unique flower colours. Baptisia are like perennial lupins.
