Description / Verbascum 'Sugar Plum'
These show stopping flowers are perfect for cutting for bouquets or arrangements! Each petal sports an interesting shade of lavender that burns to a deep maroon in the center. As the blooms mature, the entire petal becomes a bright purple that makes this a standout in any setting!
The tall, upright spires stand tall about a clump of thick, felt-like, medium green foliage, creating an amazing 3-dimensional display. It's no wonder why butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators love these beautiful, eye-catching blooms. Even though they attract pollinators deer usually leave this plant alone. This low maintenance plant is also tolerant to both cold and drought! Perfect for the sunny border or bed, this clumping plant is fairly compact, reaching about 18 inches high and 12 inches wide. Drought tolerant and frost resistant, this easy-care flower is a must-have for bright purple summer color!
