Eupatorium 'Phantom' (Phantom Joe-Pye Weed)

Sun to Part SunZone: 4-8, at least 36" tall Origin: USA Hybrid

From Herbert Oudshoorn of the Netherlands comes a new, intentionally created hybrid of E. maculatum 'Atropurpureum' and E. rugosum. The resulting Eupatorium 'Phantom' is the shortest Joe-Pye we have ever trialed. So far, it has matured for us at just under 3' tall. The diminutive stalks are topped in August with typical sprays of lavender flowers...enjoyed by low-flying butterflies as well as cats...who also enjoy low-flying butterflies. Pot size: 2 qt. (1.892 L)
