New Perovskia


New Perovskia (Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Blue Spire')

The Linaria in the back garden had died - so I've replaced it with a Perovskia.

I really like these... i have been pondering on one for a while,,,, they do get big don't they...might be another little answer for the back of the fairy garden....

They get about 3' tall, Angie - but you cut them back in the spring, so they don't take over. I think you'd love one there. :-)

I'll take a look, Amy! I like plants that attract insects - I have a number of these Perovskias, mostly in the top border, as I like them so much!
