It typically grows to a height between 1 to 2 feet tall and produces numerous blooms from summer into fall. This species is easily grown and requires little maintenance, making it a popular choice for gardens and meadows. It is also a great addition to wildflower mixes or pollinator gardens, providing nectar for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
