Echium virescens
Tower of Jewels
Most Echiums don’t flower well here at Lambley because of our regular heavy frosts. We got this frost hardy form of Echium virescens a decade or more ago and our original plant is still alive and flowering well. It makes a large shrub to near 2 metres by 2 metres . The narrow bristly leaves are quite grey. During early to mid spring it produces metre long spikes of lilac pink flowers. Sun loving and drought tolerant.
We apologise that this plant is currently sold out.
