Amsonia - Blue Ice
Blue Stars on A Hardy Plant
Amsonia Blue Ice, Amsonia 'Blue Ice', is a new Amsonia from White Flower Farm that is sure to become a favorite for any gardener!
In late spring, Amsonia 'Blue Ice' forms clusters of navy blue buds at the ends of each stem that open to periwinkle blue star shaped flowers.
The bright green foliage of 'Blue Ice' turns a rich shade of yellow in the fall creating a new dimension of color for your fall landscape. 'Blue Ice' is adaptable to most conditions, however if it is too shady they may topple over.
Amsonia 'Blue Ice' is a compact, clump forming, 15" tall, very easy to grow, hardy and drought tolerant once established.
Use in borders, rock gardens, cottage gardens or open woodland areas. It is best when massed. Its compact size also enables use as an edging plant.
