Liatris-Also called Gayfeather. These are tuberous root plants, once planted in the spring they need very little care other then dividing them every 4-5 years. Grow in sun, in rich well drained soil. Their grassy foliage gives way to tall spikes of a feathery, close to the stem flower. They come in white and violet. Liatris grows to heights of 24-40 inches.
They are one of my favorite flowers, and also loved by goldfinches. Many a day I look out to see this plant covered with finches eating the seeds.
