Perfectly proportioned for small gardens, Knautia macedonica ‘Thunder and Lightning’ delivers a storming performance in a low, well-behaved mound which won’t flop or need support. It retains all the excellent attributes of taller varieties plus generously variegated foliage with striking cream margins to the grey-green leaves. Bright cerise, pin-cushion flowers are held on wiry stems above the foliage from mid-summer to autumn. Ideal for small borders or containers and absolutely adored by bees and butterflies. Height and spread: 45cm (18in).
Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
