Racemes of indigo-blue flowers of wild indigo above blue-green foliagePlantas perennes

Blue wild indigo is a stately, long-lived perennial with blue-green trifoliate leaves and striking racemes of indigo-blue, lupin-like flowers in May and June. After flowering, decorative inflated dark seed pods appear that remain attractive into winter. The plant forms a sturdy, shrub-like clump that grows larger and more impressive each year.

Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Once established, the plant is very drought-tolerant thanks to a deep root system. Do not transplant — the long taproot makes this virtually impossible. No feeding needed; as a legume, the plant fixes its own nitrogen.

Consejos de poda

Leave the decorative seed pods in place through winter for garden interest. Cut dead foliage at the base in late autumn or early spring. The plant needs no further pruning and grows compactly without staking.
