Limonium sinuatum
Beach lilac is undemanding, copes well with dryness and sandy soils. Its delicate pastel shades of purple, pink and cream are simply enchanting.
The perfect flower for the dry bouquet.
Lasts forever in the bed – if it is not too damp, the flowers will already start drying in the flower bed and retain their colour.
It doesn't need much water And snails are not interested in it either.
