It is recognized for its soft, silky foliage and clusters of small, sky-blue flowers that bloom throughout the growing season. This subspecies thrives in well-drained soils and full sun, making it a popular choice for gardeners seeking low-maintenance ornamental plants. Its unique appearance and easy care requirements have made it a favorite in both wild and cultivated settings.
