What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. Read more here.

Large Flowered Beardtongue is a magnificent sight when planted in a large drift. The tall, slender stems are filled with large pink flower heads that support bees and other pollinators in early summer. The leaves are a soft, silvery green which compliments the flowers and adds a different variety of green to the garden.

It is often short-lived but spreads enough by seed to persist in gardens.
