Tidepool™ Light Blue Lithodora

Tidepool Light Blue is a compact, mounding lithodora selected for its light-blue flowers. Syngenta lists this color in the Tidepool series, flowering from early through late spring, with a 6–10 inch garden height and hardiness in zones 5a–9b. [Syngenta’s exact plant page](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70094830). ## Site and display The plant is listed for part sun or full sun, with a compact-medium vigor and flowers distributed through the plant. Use the low mound along an edge or near the front of a sunny border. A related *Lithodora diffusa* profile from the RHS recommends well-drained, acidic to neutral soil and describes rock-garden, gravel-bed, slope, edging, and container uses; those are species-level growing suggestions rather than Tidepool-specific measurements. [RHS profile](https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/10353/lithodora-diffusa-picos/details). ## Seasonal interest Spring flowering makes this a useful low-growing color accent. Its mounding habit suits small planting spaces and can soften the edge of a path or bed. ## Maintenance Choose a sunny position with good drainage. Avoid leaving the root zone persistently waterlogged, and adjust supplemental watering to local rainfall and soil drainage.
