Dwarf Blazing Star grows up to 12 inches tall in tight clumps, blooming midsummer through fall with purple flower spikes. It prefers full to partial sun and dry, sandy to loamy soils, adding late-season color and structure to rock gardens or short borders.
Ecological Benefits
Its nectar-rich blooms from July to October support butterflies, long-tongued bees, and hummingbirds late in the season, extending forage when few other plants are in flower.
