Jeannene spiderwort is a low-growing clumping perennial plant that is derived from native North American plants. It has strappy green leaves and bears attractive three-petaled lavender flowers about 1.5 inches in diameter that appear from June until September. Each flower is open at most a single day, and in some cases, for only a morning. It grows to about eighteen inches in height and up to three feet in width. In an evaluation of spiderworts conducted at the Chicago Botanic Garden, Jeannene was given an excellent rating for its strong growth habit, flower production, and resistance to leaf spotting and its overall suitability for local garden conditions.
