'Lemon Meringue' Decadence Baptisia is a cheerful and distinctive member of the acclaimed Decadence series of false indigos, featuring tall spikes of soft, creamy-yellow flowers in late spring to early summer — a rarely seen color in this genus. The upright, well-branched stems grow 24 to 30 inches tall without flopping, forming an attractive, dense clump of blue-green foliage that remains handsome throughout the growing season. Decorative, inflated seed pods follow the flowers and persist into fall, extending the plant's ornamental value. Lemon Meringue thrives in full sun to partial shade and is exceptionally drought-tolerant in well-drained soil once established. Its unusual soft yellow flower color, tidy habit, and exceptional longevity — Baptisia plants improve and expand for decades — make it an outstanding perennial investment.
