Persicaria
Knotweed
Poor Persicaria! Certain weedy, invasive members of the genus have given the rest a bad name, and discouraged gardeners from getting to know these versatile performers. Our garden-worthy selections are happiest in semishade with ample moisture.
A mainstay for bridging the gap between summer and fall, this new Belgian introduction imparts vertical late season floral color plus lusty foliage. Green spear-headed leaves compose a big bushy base that propels an irresistible flood of long-lasting, slim 4 in. tall, coral and scarlet-hued tails. Ensconce ‘Orange Field’ in the mixed border, where its exhilarating shades either meld with Salvia confertiflora or bring a lift to white Hydrangeas, Phlox, and blue-flowering Salvias.
Blooms August–October
Size: 3' 0" high x 3' 0" wide.
