Description

Good for cutting—fresh or dried.

Large heads of prickly, steel-blue flowers sit prettily atop a mound of silvery leaves from early to late summer. Strong stemmed plants are drought tolerant and great for attracting butterflies. The thorny blooms discourage deer from eating them.

Important Shipping Notes:

Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.

We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
