About this plant

A handsome plant with a rather erect habit at first, then sprawling. It has blue- grey leaves that are broadly linear and are set jagged around its stems, at their best when young. There are lime yellow flower heads develop from February and March, though it may decline to produce these, and is likely to flower better when conditions are poor and the site the sunniest. After flowering the bracts take on coral and orange tints, a useful long season contribution. However, the seeds will be ejected and will readily set themselves so be aware! Likes to put its stems on gravel or rock rather than damp earth. This stands around 40cm (16in) in height with a 60cm (2ft) spread
