Pale Indian Plantain

Pale Indian Plantain is notable for its architectural presence, with broad, somewhat coarse, blue-green leaves that form an impressive basal rosette. As summer progresses, this plant sends up towering stalks topped with clusters of small, creamy white flowers, drawing the eye upward and providing a vertical accent in the garden. It’s an excellent choice for background plantings in wildflower meadows or native plant borders, where its height and structure can be fully appreciated.

• Prefers consistent moisture but can tolerate moderate drought once established
• Deadhead spent flower stalks to maintain a neat appearance and prevent self-seeding if desired
• Thrives in well-drained, fertile soil; adaptable to both clay and sandy soil types
• Divide in early spring every 3-4 years to invigorate growth and manage plant size
