{"product_id":"golden-anniversary-false-indigo-bare-root-plant","title":"Golden Anniversary False Indigo - Bare Root Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eGolden Anniversary is a color breakthrough in false indigo, combining indigo blue flowers with golden yellow foliage. The bright leaves form a neat ball shape on sturdy stems, glowing from spring through summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn early summer, long spikes of indigo blue flowers start just above the foliage, giving a striking blue-on-gold contrast. At 30 to 36 inches tall and wide, it makes a bright focal point in a sunny border. It may take a couple of seasons to settle in but is very long lived and deer resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLong, upright spikes 10 to 12 inches of pea-shaped flowers in indigo blue, starting just above the leaves. Leaves are three-parted with oval leaflets in bright golden yellow to chartreuse, held on sturdy stems. The plant is a dense, rounded, ball-shaped mound 30 to 36 inches tall and wide. At peak bloom indigo spikes stand out sharply against the gold foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGolden Anniversary thrives in the same sunny, lean, well-drained soil as lavender, and its golden leaves make a bright, lasting contrast to purple lavender spikes all summer long.\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 Indigo blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Golden yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dense, ball-shaped mound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30–36 in tall × 30–36 in 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 Early-June\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-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).
