Wild Senna (Senna hebecarpa) is a tall, striking plant reaching heights of 48 to 72 inches. Known for its vibrant yellow blooms from July to August, it serves as a magnet for bees and various butterflies, making it an ecological treasure in any garden. This perennial thrives in full to partial sun and adapts well to medium to moist soil types, including clay, loam, and sand. Its unique leaf pattern adds a bold texture to landscapes, while its robust nature fits beautifully along the edges of woodlands or as a hedge. Though it can flop in the fall, simple staking can maintain its upright elegance.
Prairie Fairy Notes
Bees are highly attracted to the flowers. The unique leaf pattern adds visual interest. May need staking in autumn.
