JUPITER'S BEARD RED VALERIAN 1gal

If you are looking for a plant that practically thrives on neglect while providing a massive burst of color, Red Valerian is the old-fashioned favorite you need. This hardy perennial, also known as Jupiter’s Beard, is a champion of the summer garden, producing dense, star-shaped clusters of carmine-red flowers that pollinators simply adore. Reaching a versatile size of about 2 to 3 feet tall and wide, it fits perfectly in the middle of a perennial border or tucked into a rocky hillside. I always recommend planting these in your brightest, sunniest spots; they are incredibly drought-tolerant and actually prefer leaner, well-drained soil. A major plus for our local high-desert gardeners is its natural resistance to deer and rabbits, who find the blue-green foliage unappealing. It is a rugged, self-seeding beauty that brings a sense of effortless, cottage-style charm to any backyard while standing up to the toughest summer heat.
