Thanks. It is showing some real nice color this year. And I love the fuzzy leaves on it.

I love the color contrast, and fuzzy is always nice. I also like the leaf shape and form of the rosette.

It is different from most of them. Leaves aren't quite as crowded and it has a more open form.

Gee, I'd be happy if my Downland Queen from Greg is even half as pretty as yours, Chris. Fingers Crossed.
And I very much agree with Lynn that "fuzzy is always nice". Good semp motto...next to "semps are affordable"

I think this is one of my favorites. It definitely stands out in the garden as being unique.
