Description

The hybrid Ceanothus makes a perfect ground cover, with a profuse flowering of shiny dark green leaves which are almost hidden by very dark blue, delicate flower clusters. It is a heat resistant cultivar and looks the best with one summer pruning. Be cautious about providing plant with excess water.
