Ceratostigma willmottianum 'Forest Blue'
Ceratostigma willmottianum 'Forest Blue' is a bushy, spreading deciduous shrub grown for its brilliant late-season display of rich blue, plumbago-like flowers. The vivid blooms appear in small clusters from late summer into autumn, creating a striking contrast against the fresh green foliage.
As autumn progresses, the lance-shaped leaves turn glowing shades of red, extending its season of interest well beyond flowering. Ideal for sunny borders, banks and containers, this easy-to-grow shrub also makes an excellent ground cover, bringing valuable colour to the garden when many other plants are fading.
