A great coastal plant, as the name suggests, and also drought and frost tolerant. It's a tough resilient low-maintenance perennial that shoots up domed flowerheads in shades of purple and white in warmer months; and gives you autumn leaf colour in cooler ones. Larger size plant to get your garden off to a fast start.
We love sea lavender for its resilience, big purple flower clusters, autumn leaf colour
Limonium perezii 'Blue Seas' - sea lavender
APPEARANCE : Canary Islands native, hardy perennial with big oval leathery-fleshy leaves and domed clusters of white flowers tucked into dark purple bracts throughout most of the year.

Cut the flowerstems for dry and fresh arrangements; they hold their colour for a long period.USE IN : Front line coastal and seaside gardens; waterwise and outback gardens. Also happy in mixed borders and cottage gardens.
PLANTING : Full sun, free-draining sandy soil, tolerates salt spray. Tolerant of mild frosts once established.
CARE : Mulch and water regularly for the first 12 weeks until the plant establishes. Deadhead old flower stems to encourage new buds. Divide the plant every three years or so to retain its vigour.
HEIGHT : 60cm H x 40cm W.
YOUR PLANTS : These are larger than our usual tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot is 68 mm wide
