Blue Cohosh is a hardy perennial known for its blue-tinted spring growth and steel-blue berries in fall. Blue Cohosh flowers in spring in shades of blue, and performs best in part shade with moderate watering once established. This perennial matures to roughly 2-3 feet tall and 1.5-2 feet wide. It is ideal for planting in drifts through a border, or as a reliable cut flower, offering dependable colour that returns every year. Easy to establish and simple to maintain, Blue Cohosh rewards basic care with a reliable display season after season. A layer of mulch helps hold moisture and keeps roots cool in summer.
