Very tactile plant with fluffy silver foliage. If you're anywhere near Cambridge, then let me know and you can collect. Purple flowers on silver spikes about 50cm tall in the summer. Lovely plant!
WHY that I might be interested in? Looking for fruiting/edible/useful perenial plants, including interesting herbs and spices.
