Native Wildflowers: Container Production of Joe-Pye Weed from Seed

Jeffrey G. Norcini, James H. Aldrich, and Gale Allbritton

Joe-Pye weed is an herbaceous perennial native from Maine to Michigan, south to central Florida and Texas (USDA Hardiness Zones 3–9; AHS Heat Zones 2–10). It grows best in moist to slightly moist, well-drained soil under full sun to partial shade.

Performance of Native Florida Plants under North Florida Conditions

Jeffrey G. Norcini and James H. Aldrich

Determining which native species are suitable for landscapes is important in order to facilitate commercial production. In 2006, we conducted a landscape evaluation of native wildflowers (plus one native grass) under north Florida conditions. Seeds were derived mainly from naturally-occurring populations in Florida. Species are listed in alphabetical order by scientific name, with the common name in parentheses. Natural habitat information is presented as a guide to selecting planting sites.
