Summer's Swan Song Vernonia
Code: 1185
- Description

This selection of Vernonia is shorter and more compact than most Vernonias, and the interlocking stems support the plant from flopping during windy weather. Nice sturdy plant (no staking needed). Lots of dark purple airy blooms emerge in late summer. Pollinators rejoice!
