Description

The plant genus Liatris (bot. Liatris) belongs to the Asteraceae family (composite plants). The botanical genus name is made up of the words leios (smooth) and iatros (doctor). According to current knowledge, the plants have no medicinal use. The plant genus comprises 16 to 50 species. The magnificent species are mainly found in warm regions. They grow in Mexico and the Bahamas, for example. The eye-catching plants attract numerous insects and butterflies. This is due to the abundant nectar they produce. Some species were cultivated by humans centuries ago as garden plants. Magnificent species grow upright. They reach a height of between 60 and 100 centimeters. If the plants find ideal living conditions, they exceed the average height. The representatives of the genus Liatris do not grow near conifers. In their function as ornamental plants, they are suitable as decoration in herbaceous borders. Leaves The plant genus forms alternate, grass-like leaves with smooth leaf edges. They are stalked or sessile. Flower The magnificent species form terminal whole inflorescences that occur in spikes or racemes. These are arranged together in numerous basket-shaped partial inflorescences. They bloom from top to bottom. The individual flowers have 18 to 40 unequal bracts. They grow in three to seven, more rarely in two rows. Their edges have cilia or uneven toothing. The plants have a flat inflorescence base. There are no chaff leaves on this. The flower heads are between three and 25 millimeters in diameter. They contain three to 85 tubular flowers. The corolla petals are red, pink or purple. White specimens are rare. The diameter of the corolla tubes is four to six times smaller than the length. Fruit The magnificent varieties develop eight to eleven-ribbed achenes. These nut-like nuts have long-lasting feather crowns (pappus). This is a crown of hairs on the fruit. It consists of twelve to 40 feathery, rarely bearded bristles. These are arranged in one or two rows. Growth The various species of the genus Liatris are perennial, herbaceous plants. On average, they reach heights of between 20 and 180 centimeters. The plants form spherical to egg-shaped tubers. They also have elongated rhizomes as survival organs. The upright stems grow unbranched. Branching rarely occurs at the base.
