Flowering Months

The upright, branching stems of Lythrum salicaria boast a multitude of slender flower spikes, densely packed with cerise pink blooms. Purple Loosestrife really earns its place in the garden flowering over a long period, and attracting pollinating insects throughout summer, before autumn turns its willowy foliage to shades of red and purple. This tall hardy perennial makes a magnificent display when grown in dense groups. Perfect for adding height to the back of damp borders or planting in the very shallow margins of ponds and lakes. Height: 120cm (48"). Spread: 45cm (18"). Planting depth: Zones 1 & 2 to 5cm (2") below water level.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
