Physostegia virginiana 'Nicauca'/ 'Autumn Carnival' (Obedient Plant)

Add soft late-season color to the garden with this compact Obedient Plant. Upright spikes of lavender-pink flowers bloom from late summer into mid-fall, rising above deep green, serrated foliage.

‘Autumn Carnival’ forms a tidy clump and is less aggressive than many other Obedient Plant varieties.
