Profuse blooms that open cream and transition to dusty purple from the bottom up cover the raceme that extends above the mound from late spring into summer. The blooms give way to large seedpods that blacken when ripe, providing ornamental interest. Flowers best in full sun with acidic well drained soils. Drought tolerant once established. Baptisias are
