Looking for a beautiful alternative to tall ornamental grasses (Miscanthus, etc.), we encountered this gigantic and colourful Vernonia in Canada! Under moist conditions, they can grow up to 3 m tall and bloom in late summer with clusters of lilac-pink flowers. The graceful skeletal structure remains throughout the winter as an artistic silhouette in the garden.
