Echium Candicans Also known as: Pride Of Madeira, Echium Fastuosum A magnificent large herbaceous perennial subshrub, native to the islands of Madeira in the Atlantic Ocean. It can grow 4-8 feet tall, and even more so wide. This rapidly growing evergreen has gray-green leaves held at the ends of the branches. Rising above the foliage in spring on into the summer are the large 20 inch long flower stalks bearing small bluish-purple flowers with reddish stamens. In person, it is absolutely stunning. Very attractive to bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies. Makes a good plant for mild coastal climates and seaside gardens. Prefers full sun, good drainage, and is drought tolerant. It will not accept hard pruning, but the perfectly rounded shape of young plants can be maintained by annual light tip pruning. If you let them go too long without tip pruning plants will become lanky and wildly irregular in age. USDA zones: 9 to 10; hardy to about 25 degrees Fahrenheit. Many in colder regions have successfully grown this species indoors, and kept it smaller for containers. This offer is for 15 small seeds. For complete transparency we include payment processing & Ebay fees in our shipping/handling cost.*DISCLAIMER*NO RETURNS/REFUNDS/REPLACEMENTS ON SEEDSMost specialty seeds we offer are NOT fast to germinate.Many take several weeks, months, and some even up towards a year depending on dormancy, region, season etc. It is important that the buyer understands that seeds are perishable products and seed germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, dormancy, care, contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally out of The Plant Attraction’s control and are the buyer’s responsibility and risk. Germination recommendations are sent with each order and the buyer is free to research and use their own methods. Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water. Accordingly, The Plant Attraction does not guarantee seeds to perform properly regardless of conditions or buyer’s methods or mistakes. Since 2006 we have been doing our best to hand sort and provide the freshest, cleanest harvest that is free of defects and bugs.
