What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. They are a great option for planting large gardens. We plant all of our own projects with plugs.
Tall, bright stems loaded with flowers make Prairie Blazing Star an eye-catching plant and favorite of hummingbirds, butterflies, and pollinators. It grows in a clump that can produce dozens of flower stems. Prairie Blazing Star can handle wet, clay soils–perfect for rain gardens and shoreline restorations.
