Grass like leaves and blue flowers that look like clusters of upright grapes, blue purple in colour.
Make a colourful show in the Spring and multiply.
Do very well in pots, along garden borders, in clumps.

They die down below ground in the Summer.
Climatised to Wairarapa conditions.
$8.50 for this trayful.
Thanks for looking.
