Our apologies to Cleveland, but this beauty is a tribute to the 2016 World Series Champions Chicago Cubs! In the case of Cubs Win It, upright white standards exhibit a deeper blue flush at the base. The wide, graceful, cup-shaped falls showcase a peacock blue hue that lightens at the center, accentuating the orange beards. Lively falls undulate with their playful ruffling and swirling.

  • • Known for generating robust, well-branched stems
  • • Blooms mid to late spring
  • • Beautiful shades of blue not often found in the garden

    Overall rating: 2.0 / 5 from 1 reviews.

    I received a tiny, dry rhizome. It is definitely lower quality compared to Eden Brother’s competitors. I doubt it will survive a zone 6 winter but will have to give it a try nonetheless now that have I paid for it.

    Store owner replied: Hello Anonymous. Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concern, and want to reassure you that it’s normal for rhizomes to arrive dry and dormant, as they’re simply in their natural resting state between growing seasons. Once planted and given proper care, they generally establish well, even in Zone 6. We hope you’ll see healthy growth in the coming season and appreciate you giving it a try. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions along the way!
