Sisyrinchium
striatum Aunt May ~ Variegated Satin Flower |
| Sisyrinchium striatum Aunt
May is a little tamer than the species which spews seedlings
everywhere. The foliage is striking and worthy of using
this as a specimen. Sisyrinchium Aunt May has gray leaves with a
cream colored margin. Sisyrinchium striatum Aunt May grows 18"
tall and forms a slowly spreading clump. We have not had seedlings
in our garden yet. Sisyrinchium will tolerate some drought for
awhile but really prefers regular water. Plant in full sun to light
shade near the coast and in a shaded area for inland gardens.
Sisyrinchium striatum Aunt May is Winter hardy to the mid teens.
