Summary
Baptisia australis ‘Blue Mound’ is a compact cultivar with a height similar to ‘Blueberry Sundae’ and Baptisia australis x minor. Despite this, it did become loose late in the summer. The floral display was also inferior with relatively few inflorescences compared to similar cultivars. Overall, ‘Blueberry Sundae’, which rated among the ten best cultivars in the whole trial, is a better alternative to ‘Blue Mound’.
