Annual. Each intricately netted bud (the “basket”) opens to a 3–4" sea urchin–shaped lavender blossom, the pale center like a cushion of quills. Resembles a thistle, but no prickles. Grassy honey-like fragrance. Captivating in the garden or in arrangements. Bees love them. Grows up to 7' tall in warmer climates, but in Maine it averages 3' tall. Native to south-central U.S. and northeastern Mexico. 70 seeds/g.
