Product Description
From Arctic North America comes this delightful plant which, amongst its other virtues, offers you a wide choice of English names: Prairie Smoke, Indian Physic, Bowman’s Root, Lion’s Beard, Old Man’s Whiskers, Grandfather’s Beard – take your pick! It’s a beautiful plant with grey, softly hairy, ferny, much-divided foliage and bearing in early summer three-flowered heads of vivid red, single and double blooms. These are followed by feathery seed heads that remain showy and interesting all summer. A distinctive and much loved plant of the prairies of North America. Thanks to Ballyroberts garden for the description!
