How often does Joe-Pye Weed bloom?

Question

Planted last year & only bloomed briefly in spring.

Answer 1

Like most perennials, Joe pye weed only blooms for a few weeks each summer. You might try deadheading the blooms after flowering, sometimes that will encourage a repeat bloom in perennials. I grew it for years and found too it was a short timer in the bloom department.
