Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We love the nuanced color transformation within each flower spike: soft yellow, copper, pink into lavender. This distinguished hybrid selection of False Indigo, bred by Hans Hansen of Walters Gardens, grows into a 4' tall x 4' wide specimen, with flowering showing in late spring (late May early/June for us in MA). Deer resistant, attractive to bees and butterflies. Suitable for cutting and long lived.
