Acanthus Spinosus

Despite being wildly exotic-looking, Acanthus spinosus is an architectural plant that is fully hardy in the UK and is highly tolerant to drought and exposed weather conditions. Loves the sun or shade, as long as it is planted in free-draining soil, Acanthus will blend in perfectly among mixed perennial borders growing up to just 1.2m, filling baron spots with its erect spikes and showy blooms. Flowers from late spring to summer, you wont have any problem maintaining this easy to care for border plant, that will keep rewarding you every single year. Height: 1.2m (3.9'). Spread: 1m (39).
