Description
Eryngium planum 'Jade Frost' is a perennial noted for its variegated foliage with perfectly stunning colours, the blue-green leaves are marginated with pink and then cream. The spiky violet-blue inflorescences are also very decorative.
This sea holly will reach a height of 60 cm (24in) and has highly branched flower stalks bearing flowers grouped in numerous small heads resembling delicate violet-blue stars between July and September. The spiny margins of the colourful bracts, resembling thistles, are the origin of its other common name, ornamental thistle.
From picturesque scenes to contemporary ones, its colours range from green to silver and its graphic design allow it to integrate into many situations. Ideally planted in full sun, Eryngium planum 'Jade Frost' loves heat and drought and adapts to all sunny soils with a chalky tendency, which are also well-drained and deep; it even tolerates coastal areas. What it dislikes most is moisture, especially during winter. To extend its decorative effect beyond the summer months outdoors, you can easily make dried bouquets as it retains its beautiful colours when dried.
Eryngium planum Jade Frost works well in a rock garden, flower bed, wild or contemporary garden alongside Gauras, Mulleins (Verbascums), Salvias or Perovskias, or a few Stipas.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
