Full growing guide
The story

Fresh flowers every single morning.

Three-petaled flowers in rich violet-blue open every morning and close by afternoon, with new buds ready for the next day. The grassy leaves stay tidier than older spiderworts, and the plant handles damp spots most perennials sulk in.

Light

Sun to part shade. Afternoon shade helps it stay neat in hot summers.

Water

Keep it evenly moist. It tolerates wet soil better than drought.

Planting

Plant in spring or early fall, crown at soil level.

Easy, steady color for moist, partly shaded spots.
