Description
A useful vertical plant for virtually any soil or situation. Rather course, sage-like foliage. Each stem producing a spike of dusky purple-red flowers during mid to late summer. Associates well with silvers and greys of different shapes and textures. The seed heads stand well although at the risk of over abundant seeding. The only one Graham Stuart Thomas cares to describe and what a beauty it is! A priceless mid and late summer plant, with crowded spikes of deep purplish-red flowers above a low bush of aromatic sage-like growth.
