Eupatorium purpureum ssp. maculatum 'Gateway'
Eupatorium purpureum ssp. maculatum 'Gateway'
Common Name: Joe Pye weed

Like others in this genus, 'Gateway' is no exception in its power to attract butterflies with its huge, bright mauve-pink flower clusters atop deep wine red stems. July to September bloom makes 'Gateway' a bold and dramatic display when planted with Rudbeckia 'Autumn Sun' or tall ornamental grasses. Outrageous!

Height: 5-6 Feet
Spread: 3-5 Feet
