Concord Grape Spiderwort is a native compact herbaceous perennial with lily like frosted blue-green foliage. Small 3-petaled grape colored flowers last for only a day but bloom continuously on the stiff stems above the foliage for several weeks in spring. Grows best with moist well-drained acidic soils. Concord Grape tolerates wet soils and is self cleaning.
