Eupatorium – Gateway Joe Pye Weed
It’s a butterfly favorite.
A superior selection of the beloved native Joy Pye Weed, Gateway Eupatorium is similar to its giant cousin but is much shorter at just 5′ tall. Grows 2′ wide. Its large mauve-pink fragrant blossoms appear on colorful wine-red stems from July into September. It is a favorite of many different species of butterflies. Deer resistant. Its attractive seed heads offer winter interest.
A manageable size compared to others makes it an ideal choice for smaller gardens, pollinator gardens, perennial beds, rain gardens, cottage gardens, and even containers. It is very easy to grow in sunny locations. Likes consistent moisture. Also known as Eutrochium maculatum Gateway
Plant in full sun to light shade. For best blooming, keep well watered, especially when plants are setting up buds and blooming.
