This unusual white-flowered form of Leonotis leonurus comes from California's Derick (Mr. Impatiens) Pitman. Each 3' tall x 3' wide deer-resistant clump of stems, clothed in narrow fuzzy-green leaves, is topped, starting in late October, with ball-like flower clusters along the flowering stems...rather alien-like...we like aliens!
