Nursery contributed plant descriptions

So, first - our apologies: we know this isn’t *really* blue. We promise we aren’t trying to pull a fast one on you. The horticulturists! They have funny ideas about color! Naming conventions aside, this is a useful plant for edging, hanging baskets, ground covering & all those other fine & dandy things people love “Bacopa” so well for. Spreads up to 30” across, but stays low – around 3”. Self cleaning, evergreen & nearly ever-blooming, just cut back annually when your plants start looking like they need it & side dress with compost to keep the party rolling. Easy!
