Calocephalus
brownii * Cushion Bush |
| This is an ants eye view of a wonderful gray
perennial
with a very unusual texture. It is a short-lived perennial that has a wiry texture.
It stays nearly white and often grows to 12" tall and 3' across. I have
not had any problems with cold at temperatures above 25 degrees. I have had plants
die off suddenly with heavy soils. I have stressed it with dry conditions and the
plant performs well for several years. If you are looking for an unusual texture to add to to the
gray garden Calocephalus brownii is a plant to try.
