Description
The ‘Blue Sapphire’ is a delightful shrub which adds year round colour and interest to your garden. The evergreen leaves are very dark green, almost black in winter, and with a bronzed flush in spring; the leaves make the perfect contrasting foil for the late spring flowers. The flowers appear in plentiful panicles and they carry a sweet scent. You can train this Ceanothus on a trellis and it will also do well in a sunny bed.
