It is known for its striking violet-blue flowers that bloom in late summer, adding a splash of color to its moist habitat. This variety is a subspecies of the greater blueweed, distinguished by its unique coloration and growth patterns. Due to its limited distribution and habitat specificity, it is considered a vulnerable species in its native range. Conservation efforts are crucial to preserving this beautiful and ecologically important plant.
