There are no words that can describe the happiness and excitement of when a new flower variety joins our flower family. This time, it's all about the purple beauty Trachellium. Have you ever heard of it before? If not, take a seat because you’ll want to pay close attention to all the details we have to share about her. 

 

Trachellium is a clumping perennial with leaves that are narrow, toothed, and dark green, held covering the stems. Flowers are bluish-purple in broad, domed clusters. It is an undemanding, easy-to-grow plant, with good-cut flowers. The blooming season is over the summer. In colder climates, it can be sown indoors, and transplanted out as a summer annual.

 

Also known as “Blue Throatwort”, this species bears dome-shaped flower heads several inches across that are crowded with tiny, tubular amethyst purple flowers that look somewhat like the blooms of an allium. It has lance-shaped, toothed leaves in hues of cordovan purple or deep green brushed with plum highlights. Though it is a perennial, Trachelium caeruleum performs wonderfully as an annual and blooms from summer to fall. Did you know the plants grow to about 3 feet tall and wide? An amazing flower from any angle you see it from!

 

Not only that, but let’s talk about the magnificent color it embodies. A lush lavender, amethyst purple tone is what gives this new flower at Sky Flowers its main visual characteristic. There is a strong significance behind purple flowers, symbolizing success and even royalty, though feelings of admiration and tradition may also come through in purple flowers.
