Liatris spicata (Blazing Star) - Pack of 10 Bulbs
Liatris Spicata, commonly known as Blazing Star or Gayfeather, is a low-maintenance, summer-blooming perennial that brings both beauty and biodiversity to your garden. With its grassy, green foliage and striking, fuzzy bottle-brush flower spikes, Liatris adds bold texture and vertical interest wherever it's planted.
This variety produces vibrant purple plumes of tiny florets that bloom from top to bottom, creating a unique and eye-catching effect. Blooming year after year, these nectar-rich flowers are irresistible to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making them a must-have for wildlife-friendly gardening.
Liatris thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, but it also adapts well to a range of conditions, including meadows, wildflower plantings, mixed borders, and grassy areas. While they’re at home in naturalistic settings, they also make an impressive display in pots or containers on a sunny patio, adding height and vibrant colour to your outdoor space.
This pack of 10 bulbs offers an easy and rewarding way to introduce colour, texture, and life to your summer garden. With strong vertical lines and a long flowering period, Liatris spicata is a garden essential that will come back better each season.
Planting Liatris in the Garden
