Ceratostigma plumbaginoides
Hardy Plumbago
Hardy Plumbago is an outstanding, long-lived groundcover that slowly weaves itself into the garden fabric, creating large drifts of fall color. The deep blue flowers are numerous and long lasting beginning in early fall. As the flowering finishes, the leaves begin a month-long change to a vivid mahogany red color.
