Eryngium – Big Blue Sea Holly
SKU: n/a.$16.99
For a plant that makes a striking statement, even in your hottest, driest spots, try Big Blue Sea Holly, Eryngium. A superior hybrid, its intensely iridescent blue flowers appear all summer. The flowers are produced on colorful silver-blue, candelabra-branched stems high above its rosette of shiny silvery foliage.
Adored by florists and gardeners for its unique spiny steel blue flowers, Big Blue is a fascinating addition to gardens and flower arrangements. Flowers may be used in fresh or dried arrangements.
A tough-as-they-come beauty, Big Blue Sea Holly tolerates drought and sun-baked areas and is not bothered by deer or rabbits.
Plant in full sun in well-draining soil. It can be grown in dry, poor soils as long it drains well. Its long tap root makes it drought-tolerant but difficult to move.
