Notes

'Minmari' ceanothus (Ceanothus 'Minmari') is a shrub for hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average soil. It grows 24 to 36 inches tall and wide, so it suits a low, compact hedge. Lilac flowers open in late spring and early summer. It is also drought tolerant once settled in.

Pairs well with Rock rose, Blue grama, and Prickly-pear.
