Finally, one that ISN'T orange or yellow. Just like "Ivory Bells" and "Green Dreams", I'm ever hopeful that these three will keep the voles at bay and out of my flower beds.
"Persica" is a perennial plant and her velvety purple-black bells are impossible to miss.
Suitable for pots, too.
Protect early shoots from late frosts!
