Description
The ‘Kew Blue’ is a delightful shrub which features a foliage display of grey-green leaves that are paler on the undersides and have a gentle aroma to them. In late summer, pretty dark blue flowers appear in axillary clusters and these last well into autumn. The flowers are popular with butterflies and bees and they are perfectly complimented by the healthy foliage. This shrub has a bushy, spreading habit and is well-suited to being planted in a sunny border.
