Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Delicate and attractive, small, creeping, evergreen shrub -- to only 18" x 2' in width -- with wiry stems and small, under 1/4", blue-green leaves together making a wonderful texture. A good contrast for bold textures such as Cordylines, Astelias, and Phormiums. Pale blue flowers fade to white in spring and early summer, then often in autumn. This form from the University of California Botanic Garden. Sun to part sun, good drainage and normal water. Expected to be frost hardy as low as 0 °F, USDA zone 7. Plantaginaceae
