Blue wild indigo is not invasive, but forms tall clumps which are especially attractive planted next to wooden fences. The bright, indigo blue flowers are attractive when combined with yellow or white flowered perennials. A yellow flowered species of Baptisia, B. tinctoria is also native to the eastern USA and grows well in the warm, sunny garden.
