Cephalaria gigantea

Plant Type: Perennial

Ideal Location: Full Sun

Spacing: 50cm+

Height: 140cm+

Plants take about 2-3 years to reach full size, make sure to leave at least 50cm space between any other perennials or shrubs, but it's definitely worth planting some shorter annuals in closer in it's first season or two (better to have some pretty annuals instead of space for weeds!).

It can get quite tall, but we've never needed to give it support - albeit it is in one of our more sheltered corners of the field.

It's foliage doesn't down over winter at our farm.
