Liatris spicata - Floristan White
A refined version of Liatris spicata, the 'Floristan' series is prized for its strong vertical habit, dense flower spikes, and suitability for cut flowers. Typically reaching about 3–4 ft tall with multiple rigid stems clothed in bottlebrush-like blooms, it remains firmly upright without staking in most garden soils. This cultivar blooms in mid- to late summer, offering a magnet for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and even songbirds during the fall when seedheads persist. Adaptable and tough, 'Floristan' thrives in full sun with well-drained to moderately moist soil and shows excellent tolerance to heat, drought, humidity, and clay. Whether planted en masse in pollinator gardens, used for fresh‑cut arrangements, or left for dried seed interest, it's a standout performer in hardiness zones 2–9 .
