ECHIUM russicum
New blooms in Summer Zone: 2-9.
This very popular and striking plant is stunning! It forms a rosette of coarsely hairy leaves from which emerge thick flower spikes clothed in a myriad of burgundy-red blooms. For full sun and ordinary soil. While listed in most texts as biennial, it is, for some gardeners, monocarpic, and for others seemingly perennial. Very hardy, does beautifully in a garden in the Yukon. Full sun and ordinary soil.
Germination Instructions: Easy, warm germinator.
