  • ** I’m a NA native, but technically not native to NY. I should be used in your garden and not in wild areas.

     

    I grow quickly in the spring

     

    I have beautiful charcoal gray stems and blue-green leaves

     

    I’m a legume, so I add to the health of your garden soil.

     

    I’m a very long lived perennial, but can take up to four years to bloom.

     

    Bumblebees enjoy my flowers and several species of skippers, butterflies and moth caterpillars  feed on my leaves.
