Grow a fascinating and beautiful native wildflower with our Obedient Plant seeds. This unique perennial gets its name from a fun trick: each individual, snapdragon-like flower will stay in place when you bend or nudge it. The plant produces tall, stately spires of beautiful pinkish-purple flowers in late summer, providing a crucial nectar source for hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies. A vigorous and hardy plant, it's a perfect choice for adding height and drama to a cottage garden or naturalized meadow.
