Description
Excalibur Adam’s Needle is a bold, architectural choice for Massachusetts gardeners seeking an eye-catching focal point. This evergreen perennial forms a symmetrical rosette of sword-like blue-green leaves, each edged with curly white filaments for added texture. In early to mid-summer, a dramatic spike of creamy white bell-shaped flowers rises from the center, bringing height and elegance to dry, sunny garden spaces. Excalibur Adam’s Needle is an excellent performer in rock gardens, xeriscapes, or container plantings.
With its coarse texture and dramatic form, Excalibur Adam’s Needle stands out among softer plantings in the landscape. Its evergreen foliage remains attractive throughout the winter, making it a reliable year-round accent. Low-maintenance and deer-resistant, it requires only occasional pruning, best done in late winter. Excalibur Adam’s Needle is a standout choice for Massachusetts gardeners who want structure, texture, and seasonal interest in one hardy plant.
