Liatris spicata ‘Sorbet Shades’ is a striking summer-flowering bulb that produces tall, upright spikes of fluffy flowers in a beautiful mix of soft pinks, purples, and creamy whites. Flowering from mid to late summer, these elegant blooms open from the top down, creating long-lasting interest and a strong vertical accent in patio containers, borders, and mixed planting schemes.

This Patio Container Collection has been specially selected for pot growing, making it ideal for patios, balconies, and smaller garden spaces.

Aftercare
Plant Liatris corms in spring once the risk of frost has passed, in a sunny position with well-drained soil. Water regularly during dry periods while establishing. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to feed the bulb for the following year. In milder Irish gardens, bulbs can remain in the ground over winter.
