False Indigo 198/365

A couple of years ago I went to the United States Botanic Garden with my friend Michael and I kept seeing these beautiful purple flowers and I continually commented on how much I liked them and so Michael was like "You need to order some of these since they keep catching your eye".  So I took his advise and came home looked up the Baptisia (False Indigo) for this zone and the information said it takes up 5 years to really be set and flourishing.  I am happy to report that I  mine has been planted 2 years and it bloomed today!!!!  Here it is:

 P.S.  I ordered mine from Garden Crossings and I most say that I have ordered several plants from them including a Nelly Moser Clematis that arrived yesterday and I am extremely pleased with their website and service.  I always feel like I need to say that I am not paid for these comments in any way they are strictly my opinion.
