Bluebeard - Lil Miss Sunshine
Yellow and Blue Ball
Caryopteris (Bluebeard) Lil Miss Sunshine, Caryopteris x clandonensis 'Janice', brings a little sunshine to your landscape!
Lil Miss Sunshine loves the sun and is a drought tolerant plant. It is a new cross between Petit Bleu and Sunshine Blue and delivers the best attributes of both.
It forms a neat, compact 2' -3' high ball of shiny yellow foliage that glows all season long. It produces an abundance of rich blue flowers in late summer.
Lil Miss Sunshine requires very little care, it also tolerates dry conditions. It is best to prune to shape in spring, pruning down to where the new growth is sprouting. Tip die back is common after cold winters.
Use as a specimen, in borders, containers or mass plantings.
There is always a space for a Lil Miss Sunshine in any landscape, and it will look terrific in yours.
