Eryngium planum

A remarkably stunning perennial plant in the garden with its beautiful silvery blue foliage and thistle like flower heads. This plant is also a huge pollinator attractor. The blooms look great all summer long even as they dry. Stems make fantastic long lasting cut flowers and dry wonderfully too. A must add to the landscape !
