Frosty Plant

Frosty Plant
I didn't know what this plant was when I posted it, but Isabel (Xata) has kindly provided me with the ID. It'a an Echium Pininana (Tree Echium).

It looks like Cousin Itt from the Addams family.........see raingirls's link below!

Thank you so much for the ID Isabel...........having followed your link, I realise that one of my neighbours has one of these in her garden..........but I didn't recognise it with all the leaves hanging down and covered in frost.

Die Pflanze stammt von den Kanarischen Inseln und verträgt wohl nicht den Frost.
