Eryngium x Zabelli Neptune's Gold - Golden Sea Holly I was lucky to find it locally two years ago and it came with only one stalk and 5 flower heads and I planted it next to a Salvia Caradonna. I was a fantastic display last year with 11 flower heads and I know it's going to be even better this summer... Highly recommended for your borders along with the Salvia Caradonna.

Another stunning flower

I'm trying 'big blue' this year, just hope the weather does it justice. Any growing tips?

@gardengimp I did have a look at Big Blue . It is a Zabelli hybrid between E. Alpine and E. Bourgatti - same as the Neptune's Gold. A taller variety with showy , i

@gardengimp intensely iridescent violet blue flowers and bracts. Low maintenance. Easily grown in dry , sandy , poor to moderately fertile, well drained soils in full sun and tolerant of droughts. They don't like damp heavy soils at all...

Thanks @OICANALP , I've got it facing West on well drained soil in the driest part of the garden, so I think it'll be ok. Photos to come. Thanks for the info!

I planted one last year so hoping for half of what yours looks like @OICANALP

@gardengimp Sounds promising. Looking forward to seeing the photos soon...

@titchyfra I don't think you're going to be disappointed...
