Plantago lanceolata "Variegated"



2nd August 2005 25th February 2006 14th December 2008
This is a wild seedling found growing in the garden. It has produced some rather quaint pinkish colour during the winter.
Twenty years ago Dick Ide gave me a plant of his marvellous Plantago lanceolata 'Streaker', which is very like this, but more upright in growth. As I recall, he found it growing on a hedge bank in Eire.
There is also a form called 'Binstead Picador', but I have not yet seen it.
