24-48" tall x 12-18" wide. Floristan White Blazing Star (Liatris spicata) has narrow, grass-like leaf blades that add textural contrast to its gleaming white spires. Each plant produces multiple flower spikes in dense clumps for a strong vertical presence in the garden. Plant in mixed perennial beds to provide to break up bright colors and complement bold textures. Liatris plants thrive in full sun under a variety of growing conditions, provided soils are well draining. Plants are drought tolerant once established. A low-maintenance beauty perfect for perennial borders and butterfly gardens where Liatris is a favorite of bees and butterflies. Allow seed heads to stand in autumn to provide seed for visiting songbirds. An excellent native selection for naturalizing in meadow plantings and tolerant of hot summers in the southern states.

"Striking white (and bought purple) perennials. I placed them in the midst, near back of garden beds as they ""POP"" up and give each garden a new dimension. These are the first Liatris that I purchased that actually are plumped up and rounded on top. Others that I've purchased in the past are shaped like thin sticks. Bees, Humming Birds and Butterflies are all over them. They are both mine and my husband's very favorite perennial!"
"I ordered 25 of these, and they arrived in April in Tennessee. I promptly planted them, and they are all growing rapidly, however, many of them (probably half, at this point) are putting on pink-hued blossoms. (They may end up being purple, but appear pink at this point) I purposely sought out white liatris since it's so striking. Pretty bummed out since I spend so much time researching plants before deciding what to buy/plant. If you are looking for random liatris, this is going to be fine for you. If you want a specific color, not so much."

"Good looking massed color"
"I absolutely love this plant! I have them in containers, bordering along my fences and in my flower beds! These bulbs sprouted shortly after planting them this spring and have grown up to 3 feet in some containers! They attract honey bees and butterflies!"
"Several of the corms arrived with mold on them. I planted them anyway but none survived. I've had better luck with seed."
"Well, I didn't get 25 plants from these but the plants I did get are exactly as expected. I think I got about 10. These are very pretty flowers & I didn't expect to get all the plants from the bulbs. In my experience, you never get all of the plants. I'm sure within a couple years, they will mature & expand to fill in my new white fragrant garden. The hummingbirds have been coming to my feeders for years now so I'm not seeing them on the flowers, but I've been growing plants which attract Monarch butterflies and these definitely help! I also received a random purple bulb, so I'll lift that & move it pretty soon. All the plants in this garden bloom white so purple doesn't work here."
"I had a $100 gift certificate and ordered the items I have reviewed here. Generally, the order was very disappointing. Some plants did not survive and of the 25 Liatriscorms/bulbs only 14 grew."
