Eryngium bourgatii 'Picos Amethyst'
Eryngium bourgatii 'Picos Amethyst' is a striking sea holly renowned for its intensely coloured, violet-blue flower cones framed by sharp, intricately marbled bracts. Rising above a compact mound of deeply cut silver-green foliage, each flower head catches the light beautifully, creating shimmering accents throughout sunny borders.
Blooming through midsummer, 'Picos Amethyst' thrives in hot, dry, well-drained conditions where other perennials may struggle. It is highly attractive to bees and butterflies, making it an excellent addition to pollinator-friendly gardens. Its sculptural form and long-lasting blooms also make it a superb choice for cut flowers and dried arrangements.
