Hello flower lovers,
Acanthus mollis, also known as Bear`s breeches , is a gorgeous, decorative garden plant.
This striking perennial attracts everyone's attention in the summertime
with its dramatic purple-red flower spikes and shiny, dark green leaves.
The motif of the acanthus leaf was incorporated in the design of the crowns on Corinthian columns;
this architectural detail can still be seen adorning pillars today.
The showy flowers attract various pollinators and makes an outstanding cut flower for fresh or dried arrangements.
