Eupatorium dubium ‘Baby Joe’


Dwarf Joe-Pye Weed

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.207.340


The perfect size for smaller gardens, this is a lovely midsized selection of Joe-Pye Weed. It forms a bushy upright mound of coarse dark-green leaves, bearing large umbrella-like heads of magenta-pink flowers in late summer. A magnet to butterflies, suitable for planting in moist to wet areas. The stature of this selection is ideal as a focal point in a large container or tub. Dried seedheads offer good winter interest, so consider leaving them until early spring. Flowers are terrific for cutting. Quite possibly hardy in Zone 3 or colder. USPP#20320, CPBR4612: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
