Buy blue flowering prairie plants

Welcome to a world where the serene beauty of blue blooms captures the essence of prairie grace. Our selection features the majestic spires of Delphinium elatum 'Black Knight' alongside the spherical allure of Echinops bannaticus 'Blue Glow', each offering a unique shade of sapphire to enchant your garden tapestry.

A Symphony in Blue: Prairie Plant Selections

The allure of blue-flowering plants in a prairie landscape cannot be overstated. The color blue is somewhat rare and highly coveted in the garden world, evoking a sense of calm and tranquility that complements the wild, natural ambiance of a prairie setting. Among the most treasured blue bloomers is the Delphinium elatum 'Black Knight', with its towering spires that reach towards the sky, dotted with deep indigo blossoms. Equally striking, the Echinops bannaticus 'Blue Glow' captivates onlookers with its spherical flower heads, each a constellation of tiny azure stars.

Building Layers of Blue

A well-designed prairie garden features layers and textures, and incorporating blue-flowering plants adds depth to this tapestry. The Agastache 'Black Adder' or giant hyssop, for example, provides a vertical element with its spiky inflorescences and aromatic foliage, attracting pollinators to its violet-blue flowers. The exuberant Aster ageratoides 'Asran' contributes a softer texture with its profusion of starry flowers that blanket the plant late in the season.

The globe-like blossoms of Echinops ritro and Echinops bannaticus 'Taplow Blue' (globe thistle) offer a striking architectural form and a hue reminiscent of clear summer skies. Both varieties are drought-tolerant and resilient, embodying the spirit of prairie resilience.

Captivating Cobalt and Sapphire Shades

For a more compact display, the Veronica spicata 'Inspire Blue' presents spiky racemes of intense cobalt that rise above lance-shaped foliage. Similarly, Veronica gentianoides (gentian speedwell) showcases its slender spires of pale blue flowers, blending seamlessly with the surrounding grasses and perennials.

The Amsonia 'Blue Ice' is a gem among prairie plants, with its willow-like leaves that turn golden-yellow in the fall, offering a season-long interest. In the spring and early summer, its star-shaped blue flowers are a delight. Lastly, the towering Aconitum carmichaelii 'Arendsii' adds a touch of drama with its helmet-shaped flowers in a rich shade of sapphire, providing height and structure to the prairie palette.

Each of these blue-flowering prairie plants, chosen for their beauty and resilience, contributes to the creation of a tranquil yet dynamic garden scene. They ensure that the color blue, in its various shades and intensities, plays a continuous symphony throughout the growing season. At Heijnen Plants, our commitment to quality ensures that the plants you select will thrive and bring life to your prairie-inspired landscape.
