Overview
Named for the pale blue, star-shaped flower clusters that spring to life atop its tall upright stems, Eastern Bluestar is a brilliant addition to native gardens. Narrow whorls of pointed leaves are attractive all summer, and in fall, the foliage turns a warm golden hue. This quick-growing, clump-forming plant adds attractive and unique texture and color to any garden or meadowscape, and is reliably critter resistant. Eastern Bluestar tolerates shady, moist areas and thrives in rain gardens.
