Height: 14" tall
Origin: Hybrid
From Herb Benedict's breeding line from H. 'Dorset Blue' comes this 4th generation seedling. H. 'Salute' is a uniquely upright grower in the habit of a dwarf H. 'Krossa Regal'. Each 8" long x 4" wide, slightly wavy leaf of powdery blue is held upright on this compact clump. In early summer, the 2' wide clump is topped with 2' scapes of nearly white flowers...very unique (don't fuss, we're charter members of adjectives anonymous)!
