Hardy Perennial |
Description/Size:
|
Rare plant to find & even more difficult to research. Native to British cliffs where it has long been used as a salt substitute and an essential ingredient for pickles. Blue-green, highly dissected fleshy succulent looks really.... WEIRD! Our Jamaica Bay, NY customer told us her sea fennel came back year after year until high tide came in and took it out to sea.
