(aka: Trilisa paniculata) This little known native (coastal NC south to Florida) member of the aster family forms a flat basal rosette from which the flowering stalk emerges, starting in late spring. In late September, the 2' tall stalk opens like an exploding liatris, revealing a firework-like panicle of purple flowers...simply superb. Our original seed came from NC's coastal Brunswick County where it grew along a seasonally moist sandy roadside. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
