InfoSun tolerant, intense rugosity, sharp tipped leaves.
This distinctive blue-green plant roars "look my way" with its deeply rolling ruffles, puckered texture and folded leaves that expose their white undersides.
Struts its best stuff when planted in a half day or more sun in the north, adjust further south.
Rough and tough substance makes for a perfect contrast to the softer appearing smooth leafed plants.
Midseason brings strong scapes with lavender flowers.
