Features of Arkansas Amsonia

Body
  • Features clusters of sky blue flowers in the spring on top of a rounded form plant with very fine threadlike foliage. Foliage turns yellow/orange in the fall.

  • If grown in the shade may need to cut back once during the season to maintain a compact plant that may otherwise tend to fall over and open up.
