7/16" Type S Ferrules 12mm -
Drought tolerant, once established, and compact, Calocephalus Titanium is one of the front runners for this summer’s ‘must have’ plant. It has rounded fine-leaved silver-grey foliage and is an attractive and unusual plant originally from the coastal areas of southern Australia. Also known as the cushion bush or silver bush, it is grown for its striking foliage rather than the insignificant yellow flowers and can be kept in shape and not flowering by trimming lightly with shears. Calocephalus Titanium is happy growing in a salty coastal atmosphere and because it combines well with contrasting plants to provide colour and form and works well planted in groups in rockeries or gravel gardens. Unusual compact silver-grey foliage plant. Can tolerate a mild winter if sheltered and not waterlogged. Sold in a 11cm pot.
