The pointed leaves of Caryopteris x clandonensis Heavenly Blue emerge in spring, grey green and elongated and they are aromatic, especially noticeable if you brush past on a warm summers day. From august onwards fluffy clusters of percing dark blue flowers emerge intermittently along the long upright stems and last well into autumn. This versatile shrub will be a magnet for bees and butterflies when in flower.
Caryopteris are easy to grow having no particular requirements, they do best in a sunny spot in a mixed border and they do like drainage in the winter so waterlogged wet soil isnt suitable, they are however (like many grey-green leaved plants) very drought tolerant once established.
Caryopteris Heavenly Blue can also be planted as a more unusual informal flowering hedge setting the plants at 3 per metre it will develop into a continuous blaze of deep blue each summer attaining around a metre in height.
