{"product_id":"cherries-jubilee-false-indigo-bare-root-plant","title":"Cherries Jubilee False Indigo - Bare Root Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eCherries Jubilee has one of the most unusual flower colors in false indigo: deep maroon buds open to bicolor maroon and yellow flowers that age to gold. The blooms sit on strong stems above blue-green leaves in late spring and early summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExtra branching on the flower stems makes it especially free flowering, and the plant stays shorter than many baptisias, about 30 to 42 inches tall, though mature clumps spread wide, up to about 6 feet. Ornamental seed pods extend interest into fall. It is long lived, drought tolerant and deer resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBranched spikes 8 to 10 inches long of pea-shaped flowers that open from deep maroon buds into bicolor blooms of maroon and butter yellow, aging to gold, so maroon, yellow and gold mix on each spike. Spikes rise on strong stems above the foliage. Leaves are three-parted with oval blue-green leaflets on densely branched stems. The plant is a bushy, upright, spreading mound 30 to 42 inches tall, about 3 feet wide when young and widening to 5 or 6 feet at maturity. At peak bloom it is covered in warm maroon and gold spikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCherries Jubilee thrives in the same sunny, well-drained, lean soil as lavender, and its warm maroon and gold spikes contrast with lavender's cool purple as one finishes and the other begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun to part shade in lean to average, well-drained soil; the deep taproot makes it drought tolerant once established. Hardy in USDA zones 4-9. Choose a permanent spot, since established plants do not like to be moved; expect a couple of seasons to settle in, and cut back in late fall or leave the seed pods for winter interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Baptisia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maroon and yellow bicolor aging to gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue-green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bushy, upright, spreading mound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30–42 in tall × 36 in–6 ft wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, part sun to part shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Flush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Great\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDormant bare-root plant, sold in boxes of 25 per variety (order in multiples of 25).
