Description:
Eutrochium maculatum 'Gateway' is a striking North American prairie perennial known for its large, fragrant mauve-pink flower clusters that can reach up to eight inches long. Blooming from mid-summer through fall, it attracts butterflies and other pollinators, while its seedheads provide food for birds in winter. This plant is highly adaptable, tolerating moist to wet soils and various soil types, and is rarely damaged by deer. Its upright growth habit and consistent moisture requirements make it a versatile addition to gardens, particularly in areas with cold climates. 'Gateway' is celebrated for its ecological benefits and has received the GreatPlants Award for its outstanding garden performance.
