Blue Star Amsonia (Amsonia tabernaemontana) is a low-maintenance, perennial native plant prized for its soft, star-shaped, pale blue flowers that bloom in late spring. It features narrow, willow-like foliage that turns a striking golden yellow in the fall, adding multi-season interest to gardens. Growing up to 2–3 feet tall and wide, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Its clumping habit and resistance to deer make it an excellent choice for borders, native plant gardens, or naturalized settings. Pollinators like bees and butterflies are drawn to its nectar-rich blooms, enhancing biodiversity in the landscape.
