Sizes available: 2 quart, coming soon

Basics: zones 4-9,  24-36" x 18-24", full sun to light shade, medium to dark purple blooms over finely-textured foliage from late summer into early fall. Quite adaptable to both brief inundation and periods of drought and prefers a lean, well-drained soil.

Common names: Threadleaf Ironweed, Letterman's Ironweed

Family: Asteraceae

Origin/Distribution: This is a cultivar of the species that was developed by Allan Armitage in his plant trials at the University of Georgia. The species has a very small range and is found in Arkansas and Oklahoma.

Habitat: Occurs in floodplain and riparian habitats as well as rocky, well-drained places

More: Some may say this is the most "garden-worthy" Ironweed and maybe for a classic, ornamental garden this is true. It really just depends. But either way, it is a beautiful, multi-stemmed, bushy presence and because of its refined foliage texture, looks good both in and out of flower which is beneficial, since it does not bloom until late in the season. This is the most drought tolerant Ironweed and will want good drainage in order to cope with winter wet. It is more compact and floriferous than the straight species and may seed around a bit. However, the seeds may not come true to the cultivar. Attractive to pollinators. Good on a sunny slope. I wonder if it will last long in the vase. Stay tuned.

Vaseline Hand And Nail Lotion
This leaves my hands soft and protected but like some other reviewers, I have noticed a difference. Even after shaking the tube, to try to mix the lotion, it was still runny. It came out a little thicker but slid off of my hand. I’m not sure if this is old stock that separated or if the formula just changed from the last time I bought it, but something is different. It also has a different scent than I recall, as well. It’s not unpleasant, just lightly lemon-y, but it is different from what I remember. The consistency and the scent are both different but it doesn’t seem to affect the efficacy.

Best Hand & Nail Lotion Evet
Fantastic lotion that really does as it claims. Unfortunately Amazon doesn't seem to offer it in the larger 200 ml size anymore, or I would order it much more often.

It Really Works!
This stuff really works! It is getting harder to find in stores. Not sure why the stores no longer carry. No matter, I have been able to find this product on Amazon. It really works!
