Liatris spicata 'Kobold'

Each summer I look forward to seeing the Gayfeather (Liatris spicata) in bloom. Kobold is a variety that only grows about 2 feet tall. I have it planted in the front beds. Their spike form is interesting even after the flowers have faded so I leave them all through the summer and fall. The Crepe Myrtle in the distance is a miniature named 'Sacramento.'
