There are three things to keep in mind with Liatris:
1. Liatris are tall, narrow spike flowers consisting of dozens of tiny fuzzy blossoms graduating down the stem. Liatris are unusual in that they blossom from the top of the flower downward. The leaves are thin and grass-like. Fresh Liatris have the top one or two inches of the flower’s blossoms open, with the middle of the flower showing good size and color. The bottom blossoms do not fully develop after the Liatris is cut.
2. Older Liatris have about half of the flowers open, and the tips discolored and dry. The bottom, undeveloped blossoms may have a dried appearance.
3. Liatris add instant color to tall combinations, because the flowers open from tip to base. They are a versatile choice—useful in exotic bouquets as well as in more casual arrangements.
