About the Obedient Plant
- Miss Manners :
The Physostegia ‘Miss Manners’, Physostegia
virginiana, also know as Obedient Plant, has bright
white spiked flowers that are 18” tall and a plant
spread of 18-24”. ‘Miss Manners’ blooms from June to
September and the waxy, dark green foliage makes
this plant a little different from other white
blooming perennials. ‘Miss Manners’ needs a full sun
area but will tolerate some afternoon shade, in
well-drained soil. ‘Miss Manners’ is not as
aggressive as most other Physostegia. Use ‘Miss
Manners’ in borders, mixed plantings, massed
plantings (especially to separate other colors), in
large containers or as cut flowers. Try with darker
colors such Hemerocallis ‘Little Business’,
Platycodon ‘Balloon Flower’ or Veronica ‘Royal
Candles’. |
