Limonium perezii Blue

Common Name:
Perennial Statice, Sea Lavender

Description:
Limonium perezii 'Blue' is a hardy, evergreen perennial known for its long-lasting, vibrant purple-blue flower clusters held above lush, leathery green foliage. Blooming from spring through autumn, the papery flowers retain their colour when dried, making them excellent for cut flower arrangements. This drought-tolerant and low-maintenance plant thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it perfect for coastal gardens, borders, and rockeries. Highly resistant to heat, wind, and salt, Limonium perezii is an excellent choice for Melbourne gardens, particularly in exposed or dry conditions.
