Description
The Liatris flower, also known as blazing star or gayfeather, is a tall, slender perennial prized for its striking, spiky blooms. The flower spikes are composed of numerous small, fluffy flowers that open from the top down, creating a bottlebrush-like appearance. These flowers are typically shades of purple, lavender, or white, adding a vibrant vertical element to gardens and floral arrangements.
The stems of Liatris are sturdy and upright, often reaching heights of 2 to 5 feet, and are lined with narrow, grass-like leaves that add to the plant’s elegant form. The blooms attract a variety of pollinators, including butterflies and bees, making it a favorite in pollinator-friendly gardens. Liatris is also known for its resilience and can thrive in a range of conditions, from prairies and meadows to well-drained garden beds, where it adds a bold, yet delicate, touch of color and texture.
