A rare Ironweed, with decorative white flowers!
Vernonia noveboracensis, the New York ironweed or vein-leaf hawkweed, is native to the eastern United States, from Florida to Massachusetts and west to Tennessee, Alabama, and West Virginia and to southern Ontario.
Vernonia noveboracensis has very tall stiff, greenish purple stems. The flowers are borne in summer and fall. An absolutely beautiful specimen plant!
Type: Hardy perennial
Hardiness zones: 4-8
Height: 200cm, 80"
Location: Full sun to part shade
Seeds per packet: 10
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Then cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 90 days. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification they are then brought back to room temperature 20-22°C (68-72°F) for them to germinate. Germination is irregular over a long period of time, generally 60-90 days, but some can take longer. Do not discard the planting tray, as patience is needed, and they are well worth the wait.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are poisonous.
