Description

Plants are easy to grow, xeric, eye-catching in and out of flower and not browsed by rabbits and deer. In late spring, the low, tight rosettes of textured, nearly-white foliage create a superb backdrop for the showy spikes of large, clear-blue flowers. Plants bloom for 3-4 weeks. 12" by 12".
