Lilac Drumstick brings dependable color and texture to cool, moist gardens just as winter fades. This award-winning perennial produces upright stems topped with dense, rounded flowerheads in soft lilac-purple. Blooming generously in mid to late spring, it fills damp, shady areas with cheer and structure while many plants are still shaking dormancy. Tough yet refined, it’s an ideal solution for gardeners looking to beautify challenging sites without extra effort.
Bold, Rounded Color with Strong Presence: Each plant sends up multiple stems crowned with perfectly rounded flower clusters, creating a rhythmic, sculptural look in the landscape. The drumstick-shaped clusters add height and interest without appearing heavy, making them excellent companions for ferns, hostas and spring bulbs. Their uniform shape keeps plantings looking neat and intentional.
Thrives in Damp Shade Where Others Struggle: Lilac Drumstick truly shines in moist, shady locations including pond edges, woodland gardens and low spots with poor drainage. It tolerates damp soils with ease and flourishes where many perennials decline. In cooler climates, it also performs beautifully in full sun, offering flexible placement across a wide range of gardens.
Award-Winning Reliability and Prolific Blooming: Recognized with the RHS Award of Garden Merit, this primrose is valued for its strong performance and dependable flowering. Once established, it returns year after year with abundant blooms and minimal maintenance required, providing early color that bridges the gap between winter and summer.
