A North American native in the lupine family, Baptisia pendula ‘Alba’, commonly called White False Indigo, is a super-hardy and long-lived perennial featuring tall spikes of beautiful, pea-like white flowers that tower over and contrast beautifully with the dark grey to near-black flower stems and attractive clover-like blue-green leaves. After flowering in late spring to summer the spent flowers form inflated seed pods which turn brown and finally to black when ripe. Not only do these seeds pods have ornamental interest and can can be cut and displayed in dried flowered arrangements, kids love to shake the seed pods to hear them rattle. This species is a rare and special beauty!
