Characteristics:
Indigos
are among the most indestructible of plants.
They can tolerate a wide range of soils and
moisture levels. During
periods of
extreme drought, the leaves may dry up, but the plant will return as
soon as
moisture is available. I. gerardiana carries all these traits
along with an extremely long
bloom time of ~4” long spikes of lavender flowers.
Even when the flowers are not present, the
gray-green foliage attributes greatly to the beauty of the garden. Look for other species of
