Blue False Indigo (Baptisia australis) is a striking native perennial that grows into a rounded, shrub-like mound of blue-green foliage, making it a standout even when not in bloom. This 32-plant pack is perfect for gardeners looking to add structure, early-season color, and low-maintenance beauty to sunny beds and native plantings.

In early summer, before many perennials get going, Blue False Indigo produces tall spikes of blue-purple flowers that draw in bees and the occasional hummingbird. As the season progresses, dark seedpods develop, adding fall interest and texture. While the stems are strong, the seedheads can droop—planting it among sturdy companions or cutting back lightly after bloom helps keep its shape tidy.

Though slow to mature, this long-lived species is well worth the wait. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerates drought once established, and resists deer and disease.

Why Choose a Tray of Blue False Indigo?

• Early bloom time – Adds color when few others are flowering.
• Architectural form – Acts like a small shrub in the garden.
• Long-lasting & resilient – Drought-tolerant and deer-resistant.

Plant Blue False Indigo for long-term beauty and ecological benefit, with bold spring blooms, reliable foliage, and low-maintenance charm year after year.
