A herbaceous perennial with a dense silvery down on leaves and stems, forming a bushy clump of finely divided leaves 10-14 inches high. Flowers from early to late summer, with slender stems high above the foliage bearing buds encased in overlapping bracts, which open to showy, thistle-like, pale lilac-pink flowers. A must-have for edging, rock gardens, and combination planting. Creates a dynamic contrast with its ruffled, shimmering silver leaves. Prefers full sun, or partial shade with free-draining soil or compost. Photo courtesy of Kernock Plants.
