DESCRIPTION
Cirsium rivulare 'Atropurpureum' is an elegant, clump-forming perennial prized for its vibrant, deep magenta to crimson flower heads. The flowers, which resemble soft thistle tufts, appear on tall, slender stems from late spring to early summer, with occasional intermittent blooms later in the season. These blooms stand out beautifully against the backdrop of its mid-green, deeply divided foliage, adding vertical interest and texture to the garden.
Originating from wet meadows and riverbanks in parts of Europe, Cirsium rivulare 'Atropurpureum' is a refined choice for gardeners seeking a pollinator-friendly plant. Its nectar-rich flowers are particularly attractive to bees and butterflies, making it a valuable addition to wildlife-friendly planting schemes. The plant thrives in mixed borders and naturalistic garden settings, where its bold blooms complement a variety of companion plants.
