Sun to Part SunZone: 7-10 72" tall Origin: S. America
Originally brought into the US by California sea captain Commander Bauman, it was passed around California until spotted by plantsman Herb Kelly, who named and introduced it to commerce. The narrow, pointed, grey-green leaves adorn the upright stalk to 6'. Atop the clump through summer and into fall are charming, narrow, salmon-pink flowers (darker in the center). This vigorous grower even spreads fast enough for you to share plenty. C. glauca can grow in standing water or in regular garden soil. The demand always seems to exceed our supply...get 'em while they last.
