Perovskia atriplicifolia 'Little Spire' is a compact, woody-based perennial grown for its silvery foliage and long-lasting summer flowers. It produces upright stems with finely divided, aromatic leaves, followed by blue flower spikes from mid to late summer. Compared to taller forms, it maintains a neater, more controlled shape, making it suitable for smaller borders and mixed planting schemes. Best grown in full sun and free-draining soil, this variety is well suited to dry conditions and low-maintenance gardens.
