Eryngium 'Big Blue', commonly known as Sea Holly, is a striking perennial prized for its large, spiky, steel-blue flowers surrounded by spiny bracts. These bold, architectural blooms sit atop sturdy, silvery-blue stems that add texture and drama to borders and wildlife-friendly gardens. This variety is highly attractive to bees and butterflies and thrives in dry, well-drained soils, making it a fantastic choice for drought-tolerant planting schemes. ‘Big Blue’ also makes an excellent cut or dried flower due to its long-lasting, structural beauty.
