Amsonia hubrichtii | threadleaf bluestar

After a long winter, this lovely, pale blue spring bloomer helps gets the garden off to a good start. Closely related to our beloved Eastern bluestar, threadleaf bluestar originates a little farther west in the Ouachita Mountains of central Arkansas. It was released to the commercial trade by a grower in the Southeast and has become relied on as a beautiful low-maintenance plant for sunny, well-drained sites. Known for its fine feathery foliage that remains a clear green all summer long, this species also gets showcased at the close of the season when its leaves turn shades of gleaming yellow or coppery bronze that hold well into the fall and winter. Useful in a wide range of applications from formal garden beds to cottage gardens to sunny hillside and hellstrip plantings.
