So super huge, this Eryngium’s common name should be “Ginormous Sea Holly”. Growing to an impressive 5’ tall & 3’ wide, it’s a showstopper. Bees adore its 2” long domes of purple flowery goodness, which also makes extraordinary fresh or dried cut flowers. Native to Mexico’s high mountain tropics, E. alternatum loves coastal California’s cool & foggy climate. Standout spiky & striped foliage makes this an awesome drought tolerant attention grabbing focal point plant. Thrives in poor, dry, well-drained soil. If you’re reading this sign in the nursery, it’s your lucky day! We’re only able to offer small quantities of this mega-rare rock star.
