Miss Manners Obedient Plant

If you love Obedient Plant but don’t love its aggressive spread, meet ‘Miss Manners’—a compact, well-behaved variety that delivers all the beauty without the garden takeover. Spikes of crisp white, snapdragon-like blooms rise 18-24 inches above lush, glossy green foliage, creating a fresh, classic look from mid-summer to early fall. Unlike its wild relatives, this cultivar stays neatly clumped, making it perfect for borders, pollinator gardens, and container plantings. Hummingbirds and butterflies love it, deer ignore it, and its long-lasting blooms make stunning cut flowers.
