The Cream Wild Indigo is among the earliest prairie species to bloom. The cream to light yellow flowers are very showy and will turn into inconspicuous light green seed pods (see images) which then turn to blue-black in the fall. The attractive green-gray leaves have small white hairs and will turn almost black after a frost. Both the seed pods and the foliage will provide interest throughout the seasons. Cream Indigo thrives in well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. The flowers of Cream Indigo are essential for queen bumblebees as they are one of the first to come out of hibernation in the spring. Many species utilize Cream Wild Indigo as a larval host plant including the Wild Indigo Duskywing (Erynnis baptisiae), the Hoary Edge (Achalarus lyciades), the Three-lined Grapholita (Grapholita tristrigana), and the Orange Sulphur (Colias eurytheme).It is also called Longbract Wild Indigo, Cream False Indigo and Baptisia leucophaea.Species of genus Baptisia are legumes. Most legume species harbor beneficial bacteria called rhizobia on their roots. Genus-specific strains of this bacterium called inoculum can aid in the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen and improve long-term health of native plant communities. Inoculum is naturally-occurring in most soils and additional amendment is usually not needed. However, in low fertility soils it may be necessary. Genus-specific strains are available at prairiemoon.com/inoculum Live Plant Shipping Table Spring Fall Age/Size Dormant Bare Roots April/May October 1-2 years Potted Trays of 32 May N/A 2.5" wide x 3.5" deep pots Potted Trays of 38* May/June N/A 2" wide x 5" deep plugs *This species is a choice in the Mix & Match - Create Your Own Tray!
