Ceanothus: A Burst of Blue for the British Garden.
The Ceanothus, commonly known as the Californian lilac, is nothing short of a marvel when it comes to adding vibrant colour to the garden. With its rich, blue flowers that cover the plant in dense clusters from late spring into early summer, Ceanothus creates a true spectacle. The intensity of its blue hues, ranging from deep indigos to softer sky blues, is quite rare in the garden, making it a real showstopper. Planted against a sunny wall or as a standalone feature, Ceanothus brings a dazzling display that feels like a burst of summer sky in full bloom.
