Eutrochium maculatum
Spotted Joe-Pye weed
- Full sun is their preference but they wil tolerate light shade.
- Thrices in high moisture settings but gets by just fine in average garden settings.
- The more moisture available the taller these will grow, ranging from 4' in dryer spaces to over 8' in high moisture settings. Spacing also varies between 2' and 4'
- Garden, meadow and wet meadow settings
Big, bold and beautiful. Joe-Pye-Weed fill up lots of space and provide nectar for many, many species of pollinators.
These love moist locations but will also grow in average garden conditions.
Heights range between 3’-6” and 6’ depending on moisture levels and the height of surrounding species. Be sure to allocate at least a 3’ wide space for each of these to grow up to fill.
These definitely love sunshine, and will need a full sun location to put on their best show of blooms, which appear in late August and continue into September in the Ottawa area.
