Ceanothus gloriosus exaltatus ssp. 'Emily Brown' - Point Reyes Ceanothus

Description

This coastal species is one of the more deer-resistant Ceanothus available. Arching branches have small holly-like leaves, and are adorned with lavender blue flowers in late winter and early spring. Great for a coastal slope planting, or in back of a perennial bed. Regular pruning is not necessary, but feel free to shape each summer to encourage full, compact growth.
