Obedient Plant occurs in a number of habitats including meadows, prairies and disturbed areas and can tolerate wet soils.  Pink to white flowers are borne on tall stalks in late summer into early fall.  Flowering stalks may need to be staked.  This plant is named for the fact that individual flowers can be repositioned and will continue to grow that way.  Obedient plant can spread rather quickly by underground rhizomes.  A member of the mint family which is produces large amounts of nectar for native pollinators.
