Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Asparagaceae
Plant Description: A hardy perennial that grows in large mounds of thick, rough, wide, oval shaped leaves. The noticeable ribbed veins create additional texture. These leaves come in an attractive shade of blue-green and will bring out the best blue color in light shade. In mid-summer, tall, slender stems rise above the foliage and the tops are covered in dainty, bell-shaped blossoms that come in pale lavender to pure white.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
