Mt. Vision Ceanothus

This rare variety of C. g. var. porrectus grows only to approximately 1 foot in height with a wide spread to 10 feet.  Pretty tough for a low growing plant.

Mt. Vision puts on a great display of bright blue flowers in the late winter or early spring.

It’s small holly-like leaves make it one of the more deer resistant ceanothus. Can take full sun on the coast but if you have a more inland setting, give it partial shade.
