Jupiter’s Beard and
Columbine are two flowering perennials that combine
to make a colorful floral statement.
Jupiter’s Beard is also
known as Red Valerian. It is a short bushy flowering perennial. The red flowering variety is most commonly
seen
but there is also a white
flowering variety that is just as worthy of planting in your garden space.
Jupiter’s Beard flowers
from spring until frost. This perennial does best when grown in a part sun
garden spot. Oval Lance like leaves are gray-green in color.
Columbine is another flowering perennial that
can be found in a great variety of flower colors.
Like Jupiter’s Beard,
Columbine does very well when planted in a part sun garden space.
Jupiter’s Beard and
Columbine thrive on a low to regular water schedule.
Mulch well to conserve
water.
