‘LEMON MERINGUE BAPTISIA
Jen G’s Pick of the Week
This plant is a show stopper! It looks almost like it’s glowing brightly, especially on cloudy days. It grows to 3 feet wide and tall, making a wonderful backdrop in a sunny perennial border. Bees and butterflies love it as much as I do. What else? It’s a deer resistant nativar that makes an outstanding cut flower! I could go on and on about this plant.
All of the baptisia are on my favorites list; they share many of the same qualities as Lemon Meringue. This particular variety is my favorite of the baptisias because of the vibrant color.
One quick note; a nativar is an improved variety of a native plant; there are many cool nativars to choose from, like many of the coneflowers we offer. When people ask about whether we have native plants, we do carry some natives… but also lots of nativars!
