Blue Star shining bright for butterflies in the Demo Garden!
Blue Star shining bright for butterflies in the Demo Garden!
Blue star (more formally known as Amsonia tabernaemontana) is now starting to bloom in the butterfly garden area of the Brightside Demonstration Garden. Its attractive, star-like flowers are a great source of nectar for butterflies.
This link from the Missouri Botanical Garden will help you learn more about this fantastic landscaping plant. It’s low maintenance, only requires an average amount of water, and can tolerate clay soil, drought and even deer!
