Pale aqua leafs with purple flowers that grow in columns. The body of this plant is covered with fur.
The fur which covers the Lamb's Ear is an evolutionary tool which uses the tiny hairs to: a) Trap moisture in the air and helps morning dew to condense upon the leafs and keep them cool, and b) to create a micro-climate around the body of the plant, helping to combat dehydration in the hotter months.
