About this cultivar:

Centaurea montana 'Amethyst in Snow' was introduced in 2002 and is reportedly the first bicolor cultivar of this species to be introduced into the gardening world. Flowers feature well-spaced, tubular, pure white petals radiating from contrasting deep blue-purple centers. Grey-green hairy-ish leaves also provide a bit of interest that 'Alba' doesn't (I wonder if the snow refers to the leaves or the outside of the flowers... both?)
