Senecio candicans 'Angel Wings' | Angel Wings Sea Cabbage

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Senecio candicans ‘Angel Wings’ forms broad, velvety leaves in luminous silver, each blade thick, softly lobed, and covered with fine hairs that give the foliage a plush texture. The large leaves create a sculptural mound that holds its color through the growing season. In summer, upright stems may produce clusters of small yellow daisy like flowers held above the foliage.

This selection traces its heritage to South American species native to coastal regions of Chile. In gardens, ‘Angel Wings’ is valued for containers, borders, and contemporary plantings, where the soft silver foliage provides bold texture and contrast among flowering plants.
