{"product_id":"liatris-purple","title":"Liatris Purple","description":"\u003cp\u003eFeaturing fluffy vibrant purple flowers on sturdy upright flower spikes, Liatris Purple is sure to grab your attention during Summer when it is flowering. A fabulous cut flower, Liatris is also known as Blazing Stars or Gayfeather and is often seen in flower arrangements where it can be used both fresh or dried. Fantastic for cottage gardens, these plants produce flowers that attract pollinators and beneficial insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the garden Liatris is an easy care perennial, making a wonderful vertical accent wherever it is planted. Very easy to grow, Liatris will quickly form dense clumps with low thick grassy looking foliage before flower spikes appear in mid to late Summer. They are excellent as border plants, planted in large containers or even as cut flowers. In Winter the tuberous roots remain while the top dies down. Once established Liatris will come through the coldest of Winters and the hottest of Summers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor best results select a sunny position in a well drained soil. Liatris are not heavy feeders but a reasonably fertile soil will see better results. A once a year application of fertiliser in Spring once plants emerge should be adequate in most soils. Regular watering during dry periods will be beneficial, remove and deadhead flowers as they fade and remove foliage in Winter once it has dies back.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garden Express Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53828688642232,"sku":"PKLIAPUR","price":10.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/0805\/2920\/files\/liatris-pkliapur-purple.jpg?v=1785386443","url":"https:\/\/gardenexpress.com.au\/products\/liatris-purple","provider":"Garden Express Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
