Description
Scientific Name : Trachelium caeruleum
Common Name : Throat Flower
This species bears dome-shaped flower heads several inches across that are crowded with tiny, tubular blue flowers. It has lance-shaped, toothed leaves in hues of cordovan purple or deep green brushed with plum highlights. It blooms over a long season. Though it is a perennial, blue throatwort performs wonderfully as an annual and blooms summer to fall. Plants grow to about 3 feet tall and wide. Not only perfect for cutting but also making a great pot plant.
