Hello Bill,
You know, you may have convinced me to carry this one in my inventory.
It certainly is a full sun plant and I am a shade gardener with this on the
western edge of my garden. But it certainly is a distinctive plant...
nothing seems to touch this one... looks good all 12 months of the year.
Right now with all the cold temps we have it looks as good as it did in late
summer.
Looks like something that belongs out west next to a big rock.... huh?,
Bill. Almost succulent-looking in bright blue-green spiky foliage. Blooms
are yellow bells at the top of a tall stem.
