Mean folks stealing your beautiful plants? Now you can have the last laugh! Outrageous, 4,” lavender “sunflowers” ornamented with a deliciously dark, puffy, purple button center appear Summer thru Fall atop wicked-cool, spiny stalks and a robust, spiny rosette to 20” across. To 30” tall.  From the Kwazulu-Natal region of South Africa. Stump your garden buddies with this one! Berkheya purpurea loves hot & dry & is easy to grow as long as there’s good drainage.
