Best sheltered from strong winds, it produces a basal rosette of strap-shaped, grayish-green leaves. From the centre of each rosette, a thick, leafless stem appears topped by a dense, globular, softball sized cluster of tiny, star-shaped, lilac-purple florets. This plant is not used for culinary purpose.
