Echium pininana Blue Steeple Tower of Jewels

This is a spectacular plant, it initially produces a palm tree-like rosette with a thick woody stem. After about a year or two a flower shoot shoots up with thousands of flowers. This is a real eye catcher and talking point. The bees love this plant.

Sow finely and evenly. Cover thinly with compost or grit. Sow in a cool covered light spot outside, and keep moist. Grow individual seedlings in 3″ pots.
