Baptisia 'Indigo Spires'
Choose Indigo Spires False Indigo if you want a sturdy, shrub-like perennial with dark violet spring flower spikes and good deer resistance. The tradeoff is space: it forms a broad clump and is not the right pick for narrow edging.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The upright violet flower spikes make a clear late-spring statement, then the plant settles into a quieter green mass. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It grows quickly for a long-lived perennial once it is settled in the bed. |
| Maintenance | B+ | Routine care is light, but mature plants do not like being dug up and moved. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | C | Its bushy habit needs elbow room and can crowd narrow borders. |
| Screening Value | C+ | It can hide lower plants seasonally, but it is not dense or evergreen enough for real screening. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Indigo Spires for sunny mixed borders where the customer wants spring height, deer resistance, and a plant that can hold its place without constant dividing.

No, plan on one main late-spring flower show followed by clean foliage.
Leave the foliage during the growing season, then cut it down after frost or in early spring.
Yes, Baptisia is a strong pick for deer-prone areas, though no plant is guaranteed.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
