Globe Thistle (Echinops ritro) is a magnificent perennial that adds height and drama to borders and beds. Our Globe Thistle seeds produce tall, stately plants with unique, mace-like flower heads in a mesmerising steel blue to purple colour. These eye-catching blooms sit above the plant’s serrated grey-green leaves, creating a striking contrast that commands attention in the back of borders.

These hardy plants typically grow to a height of 90 to 120cm (3 to 4 feet) and thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, they tolerate poor soils and drought. Their long-lasting flowers bloom from May to July, reaching 5 to 7 cm (2 to 3 inches) in diameter.
