Description

Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum) is a striking perennial with tall stems topped by egg-shaped heads of pink or purple flowers. It grows in damp grasslands, along streams, and on waste ground across much of southern England, Wales, and Ireland, though it is scarce in Scotland and northern Ireland. Blooming in summer, Teasel flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, while its spiny seed heads provide winter food and shelter for birds. Its architectural form adds height, texture, and interest to wildflower meadows and naturalistic plantings.

Our Teasel plug plants for sale are priced per plant. This product has a minimum quantity of 10 plug plants. For orders over 500 plug plants please contact us.
