Eryngium giganteum Miss Wilmott's Ghost

A highly ornate border plant with heart-shaped basal foliage from which rise stems of many decorative steel-blue cones surrounded by a collar of prickly, scalloped leaves. During the summer the foliage transforms from mid green to silvery-grey. Wonderful for dried arrangements, especially at Christmas. Plants can be short lived but often self seed before dying. Height: 90-100cm (36-40in).

Eryngium planum Blue Hobbit

The world's first naturally dwarf variety! Compact plants produce neat, basal rosettes from which emerge decorative, silver-blue stems that form into large, globular flower heads containing hundreds of small blue flowers. Ideal for adding interest to the front of borders or to containers.

Seeds sown from November to January require no pre-chilling and will usually flower in their 1st year.
