This beautiful compact selection produces an abundance of fragrant blue-purple flower spikes above neat mounds of silver-green foliage, creating a colourful and elegant display for many months. Its long flowering season and naturally tidy habit make it an excellent choice for borders, pathways, containers and mixed garden beds.
