Big Blue Sea Holly
Simply one of the best and one of the bluest sea hollies! The texture of Big Blue Sea Holly is so unique and the plant is so adaptive we find ourselves planting it just about everywhere, especially in little dry spots in the garden that need an extra pop from this funky low growing perennial. The silvery foliage goes completely deciduous in winter but the cut flowers dry well and can be kept indoors to remind you of the hot summer days when your sea hollies were blooming!
