A selection from Dr. Allan Armitage. Late summer brings vivid purple flower clusters that are butterfly magnets! Foliage is narrow, fine and adds a beautiful texture; tolerant of hot dry locations.

Fragrant violet-purple flowers on tapered spikes grow over a low mound of shiny, lance-shaped dark green foliage. Disease resistant, floriferous and will last from late spring through summer.

Intense purple flowers appear in early summer; disease tolerant. Compact size. Excellent for mass planting, perennial borders and mixed containers.

Absolutely stunning two-tone violet flowers, streaked with violet blue. Forms dense plumes with masses of exploding upright spikes. Exceptional color and long bloom time.

Extra large purple flowers with glowing yellow centers and black whiskers. Blooms late spring to midsummer with some re-bloom occurring in fall! Won't stretch during the summer growing season.
