Stachy's Hummelo

Hummelo Betony produces dense spikes of deep pink-purple flowers above a tidy rosette of green leaves. Straight flower stalks give the summer display a clear vertical line.

The rounded, wrinkled leaves remain low beneath the blossoms, making this perennial useful near the front of a border. Repeated clumps can provide a steady rhythm of foliage and flower color through the planting.

Choose sun or partial shade. Give neighboring plants enough room to show the rosettes and flowering stems clearly.
