Baptisia First Blush Achimenes mistress of Austin DickinsonBaptisia 'First Blush' is a 2018 Plant Delights JLBG introduction from a series of crosses that include Baptisia minor, Baptisia albescens, and Baptisia tinctoria.

Baptisia 'First Blush' is a later flowering selection that doesn't start for us until mid May, which is nearly a month after the early flowering baptisias.
