Whirlwind® Blue is a striking plant that features vibrant blue flowers throughout the season, complemented by lush green foliage. This hardy variety is heat and drought tolerant once established, making it a resilient choice for a variety of climates. Attracting bees, it’s perfect for pollinator-friendly gardens, and it doesn’t require deadheading for continuous blooms. Whether used in containers, landscapes, or combination planters, Whirlwind® Blue adds lasting color and beauty to any outdoor space with minimal maintenance. Its versatility and appeal make it an excellent addition to any garden design.

The Eco+Grande features nutrients embedded in the container walls, which help plants grow bigger and faster throughout the season when planted in the ground. Be sure to remove the tabs from the container before planting. If you choose to plant in a container, we recommend taking the plant out of the Eco+Grande, breaking it apart, and mixing it into the soil at the time of planting. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product. Learn more about this in our blog.

Care: Fertilize with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food
