Half-hardy Annual. The graceful, linear spires of this striking plant are blue with silver gray foliage. Blooms are long-lasting and are sometimes available in white-flowering varieties such as 'Silver' and 'Porcelaine'. 'Victoria' is pictured, with flower heads that are dense and intensely violt-blue. Flowers may be tied in bunches and hung upside down to dry for everlasting bouquets.
