Liatris spicata also goes by the names of prairie gay feather or dense blazing star. It's native to North America where it grows in prairies and meadows. The leaves are grass-like, the flowers grow on spikes, the petals are bright pink, fluffy and threadlike giving it a bottle brush effect on the top of the tall stems. It needs lots of sunshine, it won't grow otherwise. Keep it well watered too. You shouldn't have any trouble from pests or disease. Remove the dead flower heads when they're finished then cut the stems right down to the ground in the winter and it should grow well the next year.
