Habitat: fresh tidal and nontidal marshes, shrub swamps, forested wetlands, borders of streams, lakes, and ponds
Wildlife Value: Flowers are attractive to hummingbirds, butterflies including eastern tiger swallowtails, and bees. Songbirds and waterfowl eat seeds. This plant provides nectar for pollinators, including Monarchs. Plant NOVA Natives lists this species as particularly popular with the non-native honeybees
Notes: Cool Sputnik-shaped, fragrant flowers. Perfect for a low, wet area (tolerates flooding to 36") though tolerates moist conditions as well. Rejuvenation pruning may be helpful and can be done in early spring to shape. If plants become too large, may be cut back near to the ground to revitalize.
