Very large, dense heads of light purple buds contrast with the dark violet-purple flowers on a shorter, sturdier form than other varieties. Wonderful in a mass planting or border. The showy flower heads reach their peak in fall, and if left standing will provide winter interest and food for birds. Evergreen in mild winter regions.
