Inulanthera calva (Hutch.) Källersjö
Description:
South African species prized as a foliage plant. It forms neat, upright, green bottlebrush-like shoots up to 1 m (3′) tall, occasionally topped with yellow, daisy-like flowers in December. Hardiness is uncertain (possibly to –10 °C), but its striking leaf spikes make it ideal for ornamental planting or floral arrangements, offering a unique addition to any garden.
