    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A smaller (yet still vigorously chunky) Ceanothus broader than it is tall. This is a very floriferous selection with rosy buds opening to 2"-4" sprays of lilac-blue flowers. This will gain size quickly. Well-drained soil and little fertilizer. Water to establish and no water the following year.
