Baptisia tinctoria
Small Yellow Wild Indigo
- Category: Natives
- Hardiness Zone: 3
- Height: 24 inches
- Spread: 24-36 inches
- Bloom Color: Lemon Yellow
This lemon-yellow shrubby cutie blooms in mid-summer, bringing up the tail end of the native Baptisia season. Coming in around 2 feet high, it could be a handy leguminous option for home gardeners. Not super fussy about soil type as long as the drainage is decent, but deeply rooted like all of its kin, so choose your site thoughtfully. Host plant for several butterfly species.
