BEARS BREECHES
Acanthus spinosus is commonly referred to as Bear's Breeches. It is a clump-forming perennial that features pure white, snapdragon-like flowers enclosed by spiny, reddish-purple bracts in vertical rows on flower spikes. It blooms from late spring into mid summer.
Bear's Breeches is slow growing and thrives in full to partial sun in average, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate poorly drained soils. Its attractive flowers are perfect for cut flower bouquets. Fun Fact: The spiky, arching leaves inspired the design of the Greek Corinthian columns.
