White Wild Indigo - Native

**** Local pick up only.****
The White Wild Indigo's growth cycle begins in spring when a slender purple stem emerges from the ground. By late June it has transformed into a beautiful, five foot flowering perennial!
Individual plants are very long-lived, but young transplants can take up to four years of development before they are full grown and producing flowers. 
The plant has a deep taproot and does not respond well to being moved, so site them carefully. 
Mature plants can be quite large, with a leafy growth diameter up to four feet wide. 
Bumblebees are frequent visitors, and this Baptisia is a larval host plant for several species of butterflies including the Black-Spotted Prominent, Wild Indigo Duskywing, Frosted Elfin, and Hoary Edge butterflies.
Contains a blue dye that resembles indigo and becomes noticeable in autumn as the plants dry out and blacken. 
Full to partial sun in medium to moist soils.
