Description

We are thrilled to offer this extremely rare and endangered Echium from the island of La Palma in the Canary Islands! True cerulean blue flowers held in loose pyramidal spikes bloom the first year and are a sight to behold in the Spring garden! Emerging from pink buds, the cup-shaped flowers are well displayed above rough, blue-grey, linear foliage. EASY and impressive, it blooms Spring thru Fall, totally unlike any other Echium we know! Sturdy, branching, 4’ x 4’ form. Highly recommended! Drought, heat and deer resistant! Needs awesome drainage for ultimate happiness.  Side dress with an 1” of compost once a year.

Stunner!
One of our favorites. We've grown it in a very small pot (approximately 2-3 gallon) and it's still has a lush amazing bloom. Didn't flower the first year for us, but well worth the wait.

Beautiful in rock garden
Amazing blue flowers covering the whole plant. Easy to grow and very low water.

Stunning flower bracts and deep blue color.
I planted this when our winter rains began. The next April there was an airy spray of bright deep blue blossoms coming up. I did little else all winter. Very showy. I just ordered another one.
