Plant details
The sea holly is a bold evergreen with an upright stem topped by greenish-white late summer flowers high above wide, spine edged, deep green leaves at the base. It thrives in well-drained soil, prefers full sun and hates having its roots locked in wet winter soil. Keep away from a border edge where the sharp spines might scratch passers-by.
