Description
Baptisia ‘Plum Rosy’ is a beautiful, long-lived, vase-shaped, drought tolerant perennial with elegant bi-coloured blossoms that open mauve pink and lighten to near white with age in late spring to early summer. The flowers are followed by ornamental black seed pods. Plants will reach 42-48 inches high and wide. False indigo are like perennial lupins. They are long-lived and will adapt to a wide range of soils from dry to marginally wet to salty but dislike being moved once established. They will grow into a vase-shaped anchor plant with the weight and presence of a shrub. Use in the border as a specimen, focal point, or anchor plant or mass plant in larger gardens. Drought tolerant once established. Nitrogen-fixer. Pollinator attractor. Deer resistant.
