There is nothing quite like a drift of Amazing Grey in full bloom — the colours shift and shimmer in different lights, from cool silver-grey in the morning to warm lavender in the afternoon sun. Tall, graceful stems carry the blooms above the foliage, nodding gently in the breeze with an effortless, romantic charm.

Choose a sunny to lightly shaded position with well-drained soil. Water regularly until established, then reduce as plants are reasonably drought tolerant once growing strongly.
