Description
Magnificent, ten inch, spherical heads composed of glossy amethystine violet stars (which can be dried to give pleasure all year), will turn heads for years to come. Undoubtedly one of the most flamboyant members of this enormous family of plants.
Sowing Advice
Sow seeds at any time, covering them very thinly with compost or grit, keeping the seed pot in a cool, well-lit spot outdoors. Artificial heat is not needed and can prevent germination so be very patient as many species will only germinate in the spring after chilling or freezing in the moist seed pot in the winter. Grow on individual seedlings in small pots until of sufficient size to be potted on or planted out into the open ground.
