The Decadence Series of Baptisia are noted for their desirable flower colours and shorter, more compact habit. ‘Vanilla Cream’ forms a well-branched, full, rounded clump of grey-green foliage with 10 inch long spikes of pastel yellow buds which open to creamy vanilla coloured flowers from late spring to early summer. Attractive seed pods are black and last from summer well into fall.
