Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A favorite. Bold foliaged shrub, to 8' or more, with 4-6” blue-tinted leaves, sure to make you swoon. Fragrant, orange blossom colored flowers in April and May, but texture is its real selling point. Prefers summer water in the west even when established. Most graceful in afternoon shade but accepts full sun. Particularly frost hardy, withstanding temperatures into upper USDA zone 7.
