Liatris punctata
DOTTED BLAZING STAR
- Unit price
- / per
Liatris punctata also known by the common names dotted gayfeather, dotted blazingstar, and narrow-leaved blazingstar. It is native to North America, where it occurs throughout the plains of central Canada, the central United States, and northern Mexico.
This perennial produces one or more erect stems 14 to 85 cm (6 in to 2 ft 9 in) tall. They grow from a thick taproot 1.3 to 5 m (4 ft 3 in to 16 ft 5 in) deep that produces rhizomes. The heads contain several flowers which are usually purple, but sometimes white. This species is long-lived, with specimens estimated to be over 35 years old.
It is drought-tolerant because of its deep roots, though it does become less abundant in times of drought. It is also fire-tolerant, able to re-sprout from its rhizome and disperse its wind-carried seeds to soil cleared of litter by fire. On plains and prairies it grows with many types of grasses.

Hardiness zones: 3-9
Height: 2 feet, 24 inches, 60 cm
Location: Sun or part sun
Seeds per packet: 10
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Keep continuously moist. Temperature 20-22C (68-72F). Germinations in 21-60 days for most seeds, some may take up to 90 days.

Here's What Some Of Our Customers Had To Say (Thank you!)
Ferri Seeds is truly a wonderful company. They take the utmost care when delivering your seeds. Mine arrived promptly and when I had any questions, they were so happy to help me. I am looking forward to getting more from them soon. Thank you David for making this a delightful experience.
I got these pretty quickly and in perfect order. I can't wait to see what they look like once I plant them. I have another colour and they were so pretty I had to try these. I have used this seller a few times now with great success, and will again. Everything I have ordered has been of good quality!
I was impressed with Ferriseed’s selection of seeds. Ordering was a breeze and the seeds arrived in a perfect little padded envelope in 9 days. I am very happy and will order from here again. Many thanks.
Never grew coleus from seed, and it was surprisingly easy. They germinated quickly on my heat mat and grow lights. Can't wait to see them in the garden!
We placed our order on Thursday and received it on Monday. Here in Canada the tracking link is accurate. Ferri seeds tells you when they're shipping and when your order is delivered, the seeds arriving in excellent condition. We will definitely be ordering again this spring. Keep up the good work!
Great product ! All seeds germinated and flourished nicely.
My order, made late afternoon, April 27th, and needed in a bit of a rush, was mailed next morning and arrived in my rural mailbox in BC, May 5th.
Thank you for your cheerful, friendly emails and prompt service. I certainly recommend you others and will be sure to keep an eye on the range of seeds you offer in future.
Gt the delivery on time. One week since i potted the seeds. Some of the seeds are already sprouting so i am very happy so far. No complaints yet

Ferri Seeds – one of the best online and most helpful businesses I have ever had dealings with. Quick turnaround, dispatch, and beautifully packaged seeds. What more could you want – beautiful flowers would be nice. Well I am sure they will turn out to be.
The seeds came just as described. I appreciate the good follow-up to my questions also.
Fantastically seedlings. They were well packaged. I planted them right away and they’re growing nicely so far.
Fast service, amazing communication!
I happened across Ferri Seeds website when I Googled a particular plant I’d been looking for. I was impressed by their selection of all types of seeds and their good product descriptions along with detailed germination instructions. I found the site and ordered on a Saturday. On Sunday I got a notice that my order had been shipped! The seeds were in my P.O. box on Friday. Such amazing service. It’s too early to comment on germination rates — I’ve just started the stratification process today.
Received in 1-2 weeks in Canada, Ontario. Everything is as ordered. No issues. Ordered through the official web site.
