A magnet for monarch butterflies, tiger swallowtails, and native bees, its large, domed mauve-pink flower clusters bloom from July through September.

• Tall, bold wildflower with strong vertical presence at the back of the border
• Thrives in moist to wet soils; excellent for rain gardens and stream banks
• One of the most important late-summer nectar sources for large butterflies
• Seed heads provide winter interest and food for birds
