Useful succulent perennial that blooms from spring to fall. The purplish flower spikes resemble the segmented body of a crustacean. From these emerge ethereal blue-lavender flowers. This variegated form looks better with a bit of shade. Watch for stems that revert to green and remove to maintain the variegation. Spreads underground in a controlled manner. Foliage has a skunky smell that is evident even when disturbed, so best not planted near seating or entryways.
