Description

Eryngium giganteum ‘Miss Willmott’s Ghost’ is a striking, short-lived perennial or biennial native to the Caucasus, known for its dramatic, metallic-silver blooms. Producing cone-like flower heads surrounded by fiercely spiky, glowing silver bracts in mid to late summer, it truly is one of the most stunning Eryngium varieties to grow. The foliage begins as a rosette of heart-shaped green leaves before rising into sturdy, silvery, deeply toothed stems. Preferring dry to medium, sharply drained soil in full sun, it adapts beautifully to gravel gardens, dry borders, and cottage designs. While it gracefully dies after flowering, it self-seeds freely, ensuring its ghostly, architectural elegance continues in the landscape year after year.
