Eryngium giganteum (Miss Wilmots' ghost)
£12.00
Tray of 6 plants.
Biennial but self-seeds well in the right spot. Also known as Miss Wilmotts Ghost after a lady who apparently used to like to share it by dropping seeds in peoples gardens. (Personally, I dont believe this as thoses seeds are spiky!)
Large sculptural plant growing 100cm or more with spiky leaves and large pale green thistle-like flowers. Loves dry well drained soil in full sun.
Bumblebees love it so much its not uncommon to see multiple bees on a single flower head.
