Description

Bio Liatris Floristan White offers a distinctive vertical flower form that adds structure to summer borders. The blooms appear as upright spikes made up of many small flowers, creating a crisp architectural accent that contrasts well with daisy shaped perennials and softer mounding plants. It is also excellent for cutting, giving clean, long lasting stems that suit both home arrangements and event style bouquets.

Liatris is a strong product for pollinator aware customers because the flowers attract bees and butterflies, and the spikes provide a long display when planted in groups. Floristan White is particularly useful in modern planting schemes where a lighter colour is needed, pairing well with echinacea, rudbeckia, salvias, veronica, ornamental grasses and pastel perennials.

Plant the corms in spring in full sun and free draining soil. Liatris dislikes winter wet, so drainage is important for Irish sites. Water to establish, then keep moisture moderate during growth. After flowering, allow foliage to fade naturally. Over time, clumps can increase, improving the show each year.
