A highly ornate border plant with heart-shaped basal foliage from which rise stems of many decorative steel-blue cones surrounded by a collar of prickly, scalloped leaves. During the summer the foliage transforms from mid green to silvery-grey. Wonderful for dried arrangements, especially at Christmas. Plants can be short lived but often self seed before dying. Height: 90-100cm (36-40in).
This amazing plant is a true giant of the bulb world - growing to around 2 metres. Heart-shaped leaves grow up the stems that are topped with scented, white trumpet flowers enhanced with burgundy flashes. Ht. 2m. Supplied in 13cm pots.
