InfoSimilar to 'Primal Fear' in leaf shape. Leaves are irregularly streaked and have no edge. Each leaf/plant is a bit different when it comes to streaks. Some leaves have no streaking. Like PI, PS has intensely folded/cupped large blue/green leaves that turn upward as the season progresses. Seeds are fertile and the pods are streaky as well. Erect scapes to 55" tall.
