0This hard to find Paul Aden introduction (a sport of H. 'Vicki Aden') is actually one of my favorite Aden introductions. The wide, pointed, powder blue leaves with deeply impressed veins form a distinctive upright symmetrical arching clump to 2' wide. In early summer, the clumps are topped with scapes of lavender flowers.
