Description: Globethistle, Southern (Echinops ritro) - 25 Seeds • Heirloom • Non-GMO • Perennial • USDA Zone: 3-8 The Southern Globethistle (Echinops ritro) is an enchanting addition to any garden, showcasing unique 2" blue thistle flowers that are sure to spark conversation. This heirloom variety, native to southern and eastern Europe, adds a touch of whimsy with its spiky blooms and silvery bracts. It's not just a pretty face, though. The Southern Globethistle is remarkably low-maintenance, thriving in dry conditions and even deterring deer. Its architectural form and long-lasting blooms make it a favorite among floral designers, adding a touch of drama to fresh and dried arrangements. Likewise, Echinops ritro has been used for its many therapeutic uses for years. GROWING INSTRUCTIONS: Start these seeds indoors about 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Sprinkle the seeds on top of your seed starting mix and gently press them in, as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil moist, but not soggy and provide them with plenty of bright, indirect light. After the last frost, transplant your seedlings outdoors, spacing them about 12-18 inches apart in full sun. Globethistle loves well-draining soil and is quite drought-tolerant once established, making it a perfect choice for low-water gardens. • FREE SHIPPING on all orders of $35 or more. • Flat Rate shipping no matter how many seeds you order. • Growing instructions included on each seed packet.
