Description

Showy panicles of creamy white and grape flowers are highlighted against handsome, dark foliage in spring. The elongagated leaflets are sponge-painted in various shades of maroon as they expand in spring. Deep reddish-purple outer sepals and dark purple pedicels add even more interest. The plant forms a 12" mound of spiky evergreen foliage with soft spines, covered in a halo of flower stems to 16".
