Baptisia australis
When to plant blue false indigo
This clump-forming perennial blooms best in full sun in average, well-drained soil, and is propagated by seed or stem cuttings. Its deep taproot makes it drought tolerant but difficult to transplant once established, so site it where it can stay; space plants 24 to 48 inches apart.
Blue False Indigo is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
