Spiderwort AKA Spider Lily, Purple Seeds (Certified Organic)

Spiderwort is a distinctive perennial plant noted for its charming, light purple flowers, each bloom composed of three delicate petals surrounding vibrant central stamens tipped with eye-catching chartreuse anthers. The plant forms attractive clumps with graceful, arching, grass-like foliage, making it an excellent choice for edging garden beds. Spiderwort thrives in moist soils and grows well in a variety of climates, from cold to tropical, preferring partial to full shade and moderate watering. This fast-growing, clumping perennial typically reaches about 12 inches tall, blooming profusely in spring and summer.

While spiderwort seeds can initially be challenging to germinate, established plants become exceptionally low-maintenance, reliably returning year after year with minimal care. Each morning during bloom season, new flowers appear, replacing the previous day's spent blossoms, creating a beautiful daily display. These nectar-rich flowers attract honeybees and other pollinators, adding ecological value to the garden. The blossoms also contain a purplish dye, which can stain hands and clothing during seed harvesting, offering a charming reminder of spiderwort’s vivid beauty.
