Spring Plant

This Species is typically available during our Spring Public Sale May-June at Geist Nursery in Fishers, IN.

A cheery, deer resistant late season bloomer. Petals have distinctive lobed ends. An excellent late summer-early fall bloomer often used in rain gardens! Despite its common name, it's pollinated by insects, not the wind, and so does not contribute to allergies. The common name is derived from its historic use as a sneeze inducing snuff.

Soil Moisture: Wet, Wet Mesic

Soil Type: Adaptable

Height: 3'-5'

Bloom Color: Yellow

Bloom Time: Aug-Oct

Notable Wildlife Interactions: Attracts a wide variety of pollinators such as bees, wasps, flies, butterflies, and moths. Hosts the rigid sunflower borer moth. Bitter taste makes it unpalatable to grazers.
