You can't beat the heat tolerance, relatively disease resistance, DEER RESISTANCE, and persistence in the landscape of Baptisia (False Indigo). They do have a deep taproot which makes them drought tolerant and difficult to transplant. I do have some gardening friends that don't appreciate the fact of the deep taproot because they complain that they can never get rid them, so be forewarned! I have a several cultivars of Baptisia and I enjoy them all!
MapleWalk is the private garden of Lib Jones and Tom Nunnenkamp in the SouthPark area of Charlotte, NC.
