A classic, hardy cottage garden perennial receives a refresh! Rather than the dark purple flowers typical of Mountain Bluet, which can be hard to read against its dark-green leaves, 'Amethyst in Snow' Mountain Bluet revels in contrast, featuring three-inch white and purple flowers. This plant makes an easygoing and adaptable addition to perennial garden beds and looks particularly at home in cottage gardens where its rhizomatous tendencies serve to fill garden holes and knit designs together. Responds well to a mid-season cut back if looking tired – just be sure to water deeply afterward to promote vigorous regrowth. This large, leafy, spreading perennial makes a good weed smother once established. Divide plants that develop a donut-like shape (with no growth in their centers) to reinvigorate and reduce irrigation if plants flop. We recommend this plant for garden settings and non-native eco systems. Although it has been well behaved in our garden, the species has been known to spread more aggressively in disturbed areas with moist soil and colder winter temps. Consult your local extension office or native plant society for region specific advice.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (801) 769-0300 or contact us by email or chat.

"Beautiful, hardy flowers, but like all Centarea, it can be a bit invasive. It will reseed as well as grow through the roots. I finally had to hit it with Roundup (not my first choice) to finally get completely rid of it. It seemed to do really well in the partial shade/northern exposure I had given it."
