Eryngium ‘Silver Salentino’
Plant number: 1.205.240Sea Holly features open umbels of prickly flowers, which are a favourite for cutting, fresh or dried. This strain produces flowers of silvery white, rather than the usual blue most often seen. Especially nice when combined together with the blue forms in a sunny border. Easily divided in early spring. Tolerant of hot, dry sites, and soils high in salts. For drying, pick stems just as the flower clusters open fully, and hang upside down to dry in a warm, dark place. Attractive to butterflies. Further details for |
