ReplyDeleteI never saw Eryngium pandanifolium 'Physic Purple' before! Seem very interesting! :) Where is it planted?
Yes it's a great plant - tall and structural - it can be found in the Long Border - right at the end away from the house next to the big tall dome of Ilex altaclerensis 'Golden King'.
