I planted a liatris 2 years ago. Last year it had 2 spikes but this year it didn't do anything.

Question

Just a few tuffs of grass. I get quite a few grass like with heads that look like wheat which spreads from the liatris. what is the problem?

Answer 1

Liatris likes well drained soil and plenty of sun. If either are lacking, you will probably see the plant decline and die after a few years.
