Info | One of Danny's first introductions was 'Flemish Sky' and now he brings the tetraploid form. The pointed, gently folded leaves are nice and wavy, with incredibly thick, iron-like substance. The foliage is light, powdery blue in color and forms a tough mound slightly smaller than the original. |
