Centratherum punctatum, commonly called Brazilian bachelor’s button, is a tender perennial that typically grows to 12-18” tall. It is a spreading ground cover which is highlighted by a long continuous June-September bloom of fluffy, button-shaped, lavender-blue flowers (to 1” wide). It is native to Brazil. Perennial plants will spread in the garden to 2-4’ wide or more. Annual plants will spread to 2’ wide. Stems are clad with simple, coarsely-toothed, oval to elliptic, olive green to pale green leaves (each to 2-3” long) with depressed veins. Leaves are pleasantly fragrant.

Please make sure you read the shop policy before you place the order. We want happy customers, and we will always work with good buyers. There are very, very few buyers out there who prey on good sellers, trying the tactic of nip-picking (i.e. claiming product description discrepancy) so he or she can rightfully find excuses to claim the product is not as described. For those buyers, please, please stay away from our listings, we really don't want to share our products with you. These are horticultural products, they are not cookie-cutting products. Every plant/seed kernel is variable in different sizes, shapes, and forms even in different stages of growth or different than what you think it should be or whatever your research is (or what the internet says).
