Obedient plant is a pretty wildflower that grows in Alabama that's sometimes also called the false dragonhead. It gets to be about 4 inches tall and it has clusters of light pink or lavender flowers that droop from it's stems. The top of the plant holds buds that haven't blossomed yet and the plant has many jagged but long spikey leaves that grow up the stem of the plant. Most plants that bloom late August and into October are very hardy and last long in bouquets. Obedient Plant doesn't really like the vase that much because the dragonheads tend to fall off quicker than usual. The plant's rhizomes love Alabama soil and you can see this flower along Alabama's county roads. It's good to take a picture of them because the flowers don't last long when picked. If flowers are left in good soil, they do the obedient thing to the Good Lord by doing exactly what he wants by multiplying and that's not a bad thing when you have a field full of clusters of light pink to lavender flowers to be seen for tourist photographs. The obedient plant is a member of the mint family. I am not sure of nutritional value, but it's very lovely and would be a great edition to anyone's flower garden as a backdrop for a rose garden scheme. You can make this one a true pastel beauty to see today.
