Description
Knautia macedonica ‘Thunder and Lightning’ is a compact, clump-forming perennial celebrated for its variegated foliage and vibrant blooms. The light green leaves, edged with creamy white margins, provide a striking backdrop for the profusion of deep magenta, pincushion-like flowers that appear from early summer until frost. Mature plants typically reach a height of 12 to 16 inches (30 to 40 cm) and spread about 18 inches (45 cm). ‘Thunder and Lightning’ thrives in full sun and prefers moderately fertile, well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9, this variety attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies while demonstrating resistance to deer and rabbits. Its compact size and ornamental appeal make it an excellent choice for borders, containers, and cottage gardens.
Sold well-rooted in a tall 9cm pot.
