Joe-Pye Weed 'Gateway'

'Eupatorium Maculatum' , also known as Joe-Pye Weeds,  are bold, architectural specimen plants, perfect for making a statement in the border. Plants forms a huge clump of coarse green leaves, bearing enormous umbrella-like heads of rosy-purple flowers in late summer.

This selection is a little more restrained in height, but still gets large and impressive.

A magnet to butterflies, this is also suitable for planting in a meadow or at the waterside. Excellent for cutting.
