ERYNGIUM - Blue Glitter
Description:
Eryngium 'Blue Glitter' is sure to attract attention! An unusual perennial, it combines large flowers, bold architecture, a long flowering season, and blue coloring that extends from the flowers to the stems and even tints the foliage. Eryngium does best in well-drained soil, and the sunnier the site, the bluer the plant.
Eryngium is a highly distinctive genus offers shapes and shades unlike anything else, and valued for that reason. From low rosettes, they send up branching stems crowned with domed flower heads in shades of blue. The stiff and spiny leaves that lie below are likewise colored, as are the stems. Most species thrive in full sun and well-drained soil.
