Plant description
Eryngium ‘Magical Blue Lagoon’ stands out as a striking perennial with its silvery-blue, thimble-shaped flower heads encased in spikey bracts. This clump-forming plant is drought-tolerant once established and thrives in well-drained soil, making it ideal for borders, rock gardens, or as a focal point in the landscape. Its highly divided, silvery-green foliage adds a dramatic, architectural element to any dry-themed or Mediterranean garden, while also attracting bees and other pollinators during its summer bloom.

How to care for Eryngium Magical Blue Lagoon ('Kolmblula') (PBR) (Magical Series):
Eryngium thrives in poor to moderately fertile, well-drained soil, ideally in full sun, while avoiding areas prone to wet winter conditions. To enhance winter interest in your garden, resist cutting back the striking flower heads in autumn; instead, leave them to add structure through the colder months. In spring, trim back the old stems to make way for fresh growth from the emerging foliage, ensuring the plant remains healthy and vigorous for the new season.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
