Acanthus mollis 'Alba' - 2014

Acanthus mollis 'Alba' - 2014 (Acanthus mollis)

This is growing in quite a shady position, but is flowering well this year - I think the wet winter suited it.

Yes mine is too, I planted it last year and this year another flower spike has appeared :)

I have two clumps and they have gone mad this year. Ten spikes on one, over twenty on the other!

I was very surprised to see a mass planting of these on a roundabout on my journey to Worthing today ... seems an unusual choice!

Unusual maybe, but low maintenance.
