Scrub Blazing Star (Liatris tenuifolia) is a short-lived perennial with showy, purple flowers. The flower spikes grow to about 4' tall and thrives in full sun and medium to dry sandy soil to thrive. A great choice for a wildflower garden as it is a great nectar source for butterflies and bees. It thrives in the dry, well-drained sands of scrub and pine flatwoods. The mid to late-fall blooms are a valuable food source for many pollinators. Zones 8B-10B.
