Conoclinium dissectum Boothill™ (Eupatorium greggii) (Gregg’s Mist Flower)

During the warm season this plant is covered with clusters of fuzzy lavender flowers that are magnets for butterflies. The fine-textured, light green foliage burns back in the winter, but recovers quickly from underground stems. Frost-damaged foliage should be pruned back in the early spring. Periodic pruning throughout the year will help maintain a denser form. Provide moderate irrigation and some afternoon shade.
