ProfilePROFILE
Broad leaves overlap radially, the centre furled tight like a spiral. The leaf surface is evenly covered in silver-grey trichomes, and the whole plant reads a muted grey-silver. The marginal teeth are exceptionally long, thin and white, recurving inward in a dense row and overlapping into the spaces between leaves. A hybrid, ‘Dancing Dervish’ × delicata GF F1, whose character rests on that layering of long teeth.
