More Information

Description Looking for the total package? Meet Threadleaf Bluestar (Amsonia hubrichtii)! This fabulous native perennial provides season-long interest, starting in spring when clusters of pale blue, star-shaped flowers arrive and draw in butterflies and caterpillars that use it as a nectar source or host plant. After flowers fade, its bushy and fine-textured habit is prominent, making it a great companion to coarsely textured plants like heucheras or hostas. The biggest show is saved for fall, when its bright green, needle-like foliage changes to breathtaking clear yellow - absolutely gorgeous when planted in groups! All the while, it is low maintenance, as it needs little supplemental water after establishing, and due to the latex sap within its stems and leaves, it is rarely disfigured by rabbits and deer. Any garden could benefit from Threadleaf Bluestar's ability to instantly add texture, movement, and full-season interest! Details Botanical name: Amsonia hubrichtii

Cute little plants seem to be doing well. I don't expect a lot of growth at this time. We shall see what spring brings!

Threadleaf Bluestar - love these!

These plants came in great shape - nice first year size. I planted them and the seem to be doing fine - watering them regularly to be sure they get well established. Cannot wait to see the color change in the fall. They do not look very spectacular yet - but they do look healthy. I will be eager to watch them grow in the next few years into a showcase perennial in my garden.
