Echinops 'Veitches Blue'
Profuse flowering echinops producing blue globes on long stems perfect for cut flowers or drying. In high demand for the perennial border or cottage garden, if sold out please ask, we probably have more in production!
A vigourous long lived variety for ground cover in shady areas. The new foliage often has attractive tinges of red veining, and the flowers are a creamy yellow. As with other varieties, best on well drained soil. Cold and drought hardy, wildlife resistant.
