Claret red heirloom with Mexican roots. Wooly-textured knotted ropes drape dramatically to the ground. Dreadlocks debuted in 1881 seed catalogs.
The stunning, large textural stems make wonderful addition to large arrangements and the side shoots are smaller, great for bouquets. Excellent for fresh or dried use.
Eryngium planum, commonly called sea holly, is a remarkable clump-forming perennial that features a summer bloom of steel-blue, thistle-like flower heads on branched stems rising from a rosette of dark green basal leaves. Attracts pollinators! Stiff, branched, violet-blue stems (to 32” tall), bearing abundant, egg-shaped, thistle-like, violet-blue flower heads, rise from each basal rosette in summer. Each flower head is a spherical-cylindrical umbel that is packed with tiny, stemless, violet-blue flowers. Summer bloom is often profuse.
Indescribably elegant, Papaver somniferum var. paeoniflorum 'Luscious Lavender' is superb in the flower border, with lush frilled, dark pink-violet/purple, often palm-sized blooms.
