Ceratostigma plumbaginoides

Full SunPart ShadeDeer Resistant

Brilliant gentian-blue flowers from late summer until the first hard frost. Spreads to form a dense mat of zig zag stems with leatherly, oval leaves. Deep red stems and semi-evergreen foliage, changing to burgundy-red in fall.

Its low, creeping habit makes it charming in both shrub and perennial borders. Excellent choice for bulb overplanting. Prefers fertile, moist, well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade, especially in the South. Tolerant of poor soil.

A great groundcover with multi-seasonal interest. Attracts butterflies!

Common Name: Plumbago, Leadwort

Mature Height: 6-12"

Flowering: Gentian-blue flowers from July until autumn

Spacing: 6-12"

What a Beauty!! September 8, 2007
Reviewer: Rita  Liles from Florence, AL United States  
I planted two of these this spring. They have spread to more than a foot across and have one inch  blue blooms that look like they are lit from within. Absolutey beautiful! I hope it fairs well this winter.

great packaging June 21, 2007
Reviewer: Ernest  
Hello,
I just received my first order of plants from Santa Rosa and I wanted to say that when it comes to mindful, intelligent and careful packing and shipping of plants-- you guys take the cake. After the road accidents I've been getting in shipments from other plant companies-- and I mean astounding messes-- I was stunned when I opened your box. Very, Veryclassy, my friends. You've got my respect and thatnk-- and my future business.
