Whitewater Acanthus

Whitewater Acanthus

Excellent variegation and plenty of vigour!

There's plenty to admire about this remarkable flowering plant. Its showy leaves have deep cuts and white margins that splash onto the green foliage. Reaching up to 4' tall, its dense, terminal spikes of funnel-shaped flowers display pink and cream—and last for weeks. The luminous flower spikes look fabulous in borders and are an excellent addition to dried arrangements. Whitewater was bred to tolerate heat and humidity. Acanthus mollis

Important Shipping Notes:

Breck's times its shipments from Holland so that bulbs and bareroots arrive at the proper planting time (depending on climatic conditions) for each area of North America. To promote optimum stress protection in transit and your success in the garden, bareroot perennials are kept in the ground in our nurseries until fully dormant. In the Fall, these plants tend to arrive at the later end of the shipping window below.

We will pack and ship your order based on the following schedules. The type of product you order or the weather may affect the anticipated shipping schedule below. Based on the contents of your order we always strive to ship your order complete, and as early as possible in the planting season to allow for the best root development once planted.
