Bluecup

Bluecup features small, delicate flowers typically in hues of blue or violet, which contrast against its narrow, lance-shaped leaves. These blossoms thrive in the shaded, moist environments often found in its native North American habitats. The clustered arrangement of flowers atop slender stems makes it particularly attractive in its woodland settings, drawing in pollinators despite its understated appearance.
