Notes

'Snow Flurry' blue blossom (Ceanothus thyrsiflorus 'Snow Flurry') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. This evergreen shrub grows fast and forms a dense, fragrant screen. It blooms from early to late spring, and butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit it. It also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Thrift, Douglas iris, and Silver lupine.
