A very rare, exciting and stunning flower bears spectacular head of closely-packed, blue-purple flowers with a bright golden eye! The flowers open over an extended period in late spring on a hairy stem. The foliage has thick, wavy-edged leaves, clad in dense hairs. This is one of the world's newest and most desirable plants. Provide organic moist soil, and preferably some shade.
Available for a very limited time.
Type: Hardy perennial
Hardiness zones: 5-8
Height: 1.2-1.5m, 4-5'
Location: Shade or part sun
Seeds per packet: 10
Availability: If these seeds are showing out of stock, we strongly recommend joining our wait list, as these seeds have a very shorty viability window, and this helps ensure you get the freshest seeds possible! If they are available, they will only be available for a short time.
Germination: These seeds require light to germinate. Sow the seeds on surface and water in. Do not bury the seeds. Leave them at room temperature (20-22 C, 68-72 F) for 4 weeks. If they have not germinated after 4 weeks then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 4 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold-moist stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15C, 59F) for them to germinate. Germination can be 30-90 days after the warming period, though some will take longer.
