✂️ Care
Plant in partial shade in rich, well-drained, and slightly acidic soil to promote intense blue flowers. Water regularly when planting to encourage rooting, then maintain consistent moisture during the growing season.
Prune in spring before new growth to maintain a balanced shape and stimulate abundant flowering. Apply organic mulch to retain moisture and maintain soil acidity.
This elegant and reliable shrub offers spectacular and prolonged flowering from early summer until the first frosts. Ideal for shaded beds, flowering hedges, and cottage gardens, it brings color and texture to the landscape with minimal maintenance.
