Joe Pye
Eutrochium dubium ‘Little Joe’
Little Joe’s much taller brother is a little too big for some formal garden beds but standing at only 3-4 feet tall, his shorter stature opens a world of possibilities. Dusty pink blooms are held on sturdy dark purple stems and make an excellent cut flower, dried or fresh. Add to the middle or back of a border bed to add some late season color.
