Add vertical elegance and vibrant color to your garden with Giant Ironweed (Vernonia gigantea), a striking perennial that reaches impressive heights of 5 to 8 feet, with a spread of 3 to 6 feet. Its showy, rose-purple flowers bloom from late summer through early fall (August to September), providing a bold splash of color when many other plants have finished flowering. As the season progresses, the blossoms give way to clusters of rusty-colored seeds, adding unique autumnal interest.

Thriving in full sun to part shade, Giant Ironweed prefers medium to wet soils, making it an excellent choice for rain gardens, wetland edges, or moist meadows. This low-maintenance plant is deer-resistant, ensuring your garden remains lush and intact, while its nectar-rich flowers attract an array of pollinators, including butterflies and bees, making it a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.
