Acanthus mollis ‘Rue Ledan’ (P-1918)
Each 12.75
A lustrous mound of large, deeply lobed green leaves entertains majestic straight-up silvery green spires, composed of big pure white flowers that protrude from prominent canopy-like green bracts. With elegance and architecture to spare, this rarely offered perennial can be utilized as a statuesque pathway sentinel or as a compelling specimen in a mixed border. ‘Rue Ledan’ tolerates shade, wards off mildew and stays fresh in a cut arrangement for nearly 2 weeks.
Blooms June–July
Size: 3' 0" – 4' 0" high x 2' 0" – 2-1/2' wide.
