ERYNGIUM PLANUM Herbaceous perennial
Eryngium is a coarse, thistle-like, clump-forming sea holly cultivar that is particularly noted for producing an abundant crop of glittering steel blue flower heads on heavily branched stems throughout summer. Although developed at least in part for the cut flower industry, this cultivar makes an excellent addition to the home garden. From basal rosettes of elliptic to oblong, cordate-based, deeply-toothed, blue green leaves rise stiff silver-blue stems. Tiny, stemless, steel-blue flowers tightly packed into egg-shaped heads.
Easily grown in dry, sandy, well-drained soils in full sun. Tolerates poor soils. Tall plants may sprawl, particularly if grown in overly fertile soils or in anything less than full sun. Avoid overwatering. This is a taprooted plant that transplants poorly and is best left undisturbed once established. Eryngium will bloom first year from seed.
