Caryopteris divaricata (syn. Tripora divaricata) - BLUEBEARD

No reviews yet
Product Code: CAR-DIV-X
Shipping: Calculated at Checkout
$8.99

This perennial has unique, purple-blue flowers that appear from late summer to early fall. It dies back completely in the winter. The foliage releases an unpleasant aroma when crushed, which causes deer to avoid it. 

Caryopteris divaricata prefers loose loam and will tolerate some drought; good drainage becomes even more necessary when it's planted in more northern zones. Provides an unusual detail for drained flower beds, perennial borders, cottage gardens, and butterfly gardens.
