Info=kikutii 'Harvest Delight'.
14" tall. Part Sun to Light Shade.
This selection of H. kikutii is a classic example of this wonderful species. The long, tapered green leaves are deeply veined, giving a wonderful textured appearance. In late summer, the 2' wide clumps are topped with arching 3' scapes of light lavender flowers... truly spectacular in flower!
