Stokesia laevis

Lovely colour lilac s and purples and white too very pretty flower too

Oooooooh, I like that... lovely bluey shades and such a beautiful shape !

Very beautiful. Love these ragged looking flowers.

That is very pretty Barbara......... beautiful colour !

Thanks, all! I agree - the colour is lovely! :-)

Snap !
I posted the white one !

ooohhhh this is nice Sprtiz, not seen this variety before, does it get big?

No - its height is about 2', I suppose.

I didn't know there's a white one, Louise? I'll take a look. :-)

is it oneof the big headed single flower varieties... i have seen some a bit like it as cut flowers that grow about 18" - 2ft... but never as a garden plant and not as lovely as this....

Yes - the flowers do grow singly - about 3" across. I don't cut flowers for indoors (except Sweetpeas and S. Williams) so I don't know how they get on in a vase.

they do quite well Spritz... great in hand-tied BQ's...

Beautiful colour and flower!

I have one too....slightly different blue....flower quite late in my garden,...

That's a beauty! I love blue in the garden.
