Vernonia lindheimeri v. leucophylla

Arlington, TX

Anyone grow this TX native? I am thinking about ordering a couple but want to know how it actually fairs in the garden and what size it might get.

I have this one http://wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=VELI3
But this is only the second year, very pretty but not as strong as they Baldwinii.

The same plant but I think the one I was thinking of buying has gray leaves. I didn't realize they were that short, or do you think it might be a really different form? Is the bloom period as long as indicated on the NPIN site?

Not really, a lot of the time the bloom period is not as long as they say, they may be referring to bloom times in different areas.
