Threadleaf Bluestar
Amsonia hubrichtii
Threadleaf Bluestar is an easy way to add gorgeous fine texture to your garden. The slender thread-like foliage is reminiscent of feathery plumes, which become topped with light blue, star-like flowers in spring. This plant is tough as nails and thrives on neglect. But best of all, this bluestar displays some of the most striking fall color of any perennial, turning brilliant shades of yellow, gold, and bronze.
