Melianthus major

Melianthus major

COMING SOON

South Africa. Fabulous architectural glaucous foliage, jaggedly cut. Hardy once established. Likes sun & drainage. 1-2m. Weedy in some areas as it spreads by suckers. Restrained for me in Canterbury where I use it in the nastiest, driest  places.  Large plants. Use up the space of four little ones for freight . 

Flower heads:  Close up Stan Shebs. Full bloom in Jardin des Plantes in early Spring. Full plant in the wild by SAplants Wikimedia Commons
