Details
Carpet Bugle
Princess Leia creates a lovely carpet of textured, silver-green leaves with broad creamy-white margins and dark green edging. Deep purple flower spikes crown the variegated foliage in spring, attracting bees and adding a rich contrast to shady borders. Its compact, cushion-like habit also works beautifully in patio pots and along pathways. Give it moderate moisture and well-drained soil, with afternoon protection in hot locations to help prevent leaf scorch.
