Description
Amsonia 'String Theory' is a compact and refined selection of the classic native Amsonia hubrichtii, bred for smaller spaces without sacrificing ornamental value. This perennial is prized for its feathery, thread-like foliage and starry periwinkle-blue flowers that appear in late spring to early summer. The fine-textured foliage remains attractive all season, turning a brilliant golden-yellow in fall for extended interest.
It’s deer resistant, pollinator friendly, and highly adaptable to sun or partial shade, making it a standout in native plant gardens, borders, or mixed perennial beds.
