Gentiana – True Blue Gentian
True to its name, True Blue Gentian, Gentiana, delights with intense blue tubular flowers that open up at nodes all up and down the stems. One of the only few true blue flowers of nature. Blossoms appear midsummer to early fall.
Unlike other Gentians that melt in the heat, True Blue is happy basking in the hot days of summer in full sun.
Plant in full sun to light shade. Add organic matter when planting.
