Description
Lythrum salicaria 'Blush', a captivating cultivar of the native Purple Loosestrife, is a perfect addition to any garden seeking soft, pastel tones. Renowned for its delicate pink flower spikes, this variety brings a refined elegance to borders, water features, and wildlife gardens. Its graceful appearance adds vertical interest while offering a gentle blush of colour, making it an ideal choice for attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies.
Reaching a height of 80–100 cm, Lythrum salicaria 'Blush' is perfect for planting in the middle or back of borders, where its upright habit and compact size can blend harmoniously with other perennials. It thrives in moist, well-drained soils, making it especially suited for garden edges, rain gardens, or alongside ponds. Once established, it can tolerate moderately dry conditions as well. This hardy perennial flourishes in full sun to partial shade, offering beautiful blooms from mid to late summer and brightening the garden with its soft, pastel colouring.
What makes Lythrum salicaria 'Blush' particularly special is its historical role in purifying water. Traditionally found thriving in wetlands, loosestrife species were known for their ability to enhance the health of these ecosystems. Today, this elegant blush-pink variety brings that same ecological benefit while offering a softer, more refined look for modern gardens.
Lythrum salicaria 'Blush' is a versatile, low-maintenance perennial that adds both beauty and ecological value to any garden.
