Eryngium Planum 'White Glitter' is an elegant perennial with a profusion of glistening silvery ivory flowers.  It is extremely attractive to bees, butterflies and other insects.  This Eryngium grows to 90cm and  prefers full sun and well drained soil.  Excellent plant for cottage, meadow and cutting gardens.  Seed heads can be left for a winter feature.
 
The flowers can be used in floral arrangements both fresh and dried.
 
Direct sowing of seed in autumn is recommended over transplanting seedlings / plants as Sea Holly has a long tap root. Soil with good drainage is preferred to prevent root rot and powdery mildew.
 
Sow seeds in autumn.  If you wish to grow Sea Holly but do not have a cold winter which the seeds need. Place seeds in the refrigerator for a minimum of six weeks. Seeds will need to be placed in small plastic bags or containers to keep dry. Then direct sow.
