Description
This sturdy shrub has beautiful deep blue flowers borne densely in rounded clusters. It makes a superb specimen plant for a south or west-facing border among spring-flowering bulbs, and when it has finished flowering, it provides an excellent foil for later-flowering deciduous shrubs and perennials. It is a good idea to protect this one from cold winds.
