Bottle/Closed Gentian (Gentiana andrewsii)

Bottle Gentian has bottle-like deep blue flowers that add gorgeous colour to your late season garden.

It is a beautiful accent for mostly sunny sites in moist soils, is slow-growing, but long-lived once established. Great companions with other late bloomers such as New England Aster and Goldenrod.
