'Little Joe' Joe Pye's much taller parent is a little too big for some formal garden beds but standing at only 3’-4’ tall, his shorter stature opens a world of possibilities. Dusty pink blooms are held on sturdy dark purple stems and make an excellent cut flower, dried or fresh. Add to the middle or back of a border bed for some midsummer color and a veritable butterfly buffet!
