striking umbellifer forming a bold rosette of finely divided foliage, followed by towering stems topped with large, domed heads of yellow-green flowers in early summer. Architectural and dramatic, it lends a wild, naturalistic feel to borders and dry gardens. In Scotland, it benefits from a warm, sheltered position with very free-draining soil, ideally against a south-facing wall or in a gravel garden, to protect it from excessive winter wet.
Sold currently in 1-litre pots.
Height: 150–200 cm
Position: Full sun
Soil: Well-drained, poor to moderately fertile
Flowering Time: June–July
Works well with: Eryngium, Foeniculum, and Perovskia for a sculptural, airy combination that thrives in hot, dry conditions
