Plant description
Perfect for a seaside garden. Dense clusters of reddish-pink flowers appear from July to October on tall, fleshy stems with glaucous leaves. Red valerian is long flowering and easy to grow. It's ideal for a sunny wildflower or seaside garden with poor but well-drained soil, or for growing between the cracks in walls. It self-seeds freely and prefers a chalky or alkaline soil.
