IVORY WHITE SWEET JOE PYE
- Unit price
- / per
Native to North America. This variety of Joe Pye Weed has beautiful and full large white flowers! Joe-Pye is a gorgeous perennial plant, even if you didn't love it for it's ability to feed butterflies. Plants form tidy clumps that become covered in pink flowers over many weeks. The plants become so large, they are like a small shrub. As Milkweed is used to feed monarch caterpillars (the caterpillars eat Milkweed leaves, as it is the only plants they can eat), the nectar of Joe Pye can feed ALL butterflies, including the monarch butterfly, swallowtails, and many more! Plant in sun or part sun. Plants are very hardy, as cold as zone 3.
Type: Hardy perennial
Height: 80", 200cm
Location: Sun or part sun
Hardiness zones: 4-8
Seeds per pack: 30
Surface sow as light aids germination. Water the seeds in. Leave them at room temperature for 5 weeks. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. They will not grow yet. Then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 80 days. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15C, 59F) for them to germinate. Germination is generally 30-90 days after the warming period, though some can take longer.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
