This compact cultivar forms spreading mounds of aromatic, gray-green foliage, reaching about 18 inches in height. It is highly valued for its dense clusters of true blue flowers that bloom from late spring through summer, attracting pollinators like butterflies and bees. Ideal for rock gardens, borders, and cottage gardens, it thrives in full sun to part shade and well-drained soil. This sterile hybrid is deer-resistant and drought-tolerant once established, making it a low-maintenance choice for xeric landscapes.
