September Blooms: Ceratostigma Plumbago (Perennial Plumbago)



Ceratostigma Plumbago (Perennial Plumbago) zones 5-9 Another blue bloomer! 6-8” tall this plant is a workhorse in the garden. An enthusiastic, deer resistant ground cover that grows and flowers in sun or shade, and offers not only the elusive true blue flower, but blooms into the fall! As if that weren’t enough, after the flower finish, the foliage turns a vibrant red.
