Beyond Midnight® Bluebeard

So Many Blooms, It’s Like a Ball of Blue!

Beyond Midnight Bluebeard is a lovely shrub, with a rounded nature and deep green coloring.  However its true value is seen as the season progresses.  Long stems shoot up above the glossy, dark-green foliage in late summer, clothed in a multitude of delicate, deep-blue blossoms. The shrub is so populated with the long wands of dark blue color that it has the effect of turning the vibrant green shrub into a veritable “ball of blue” in the landscape.

The remarkable flowers last into fall, providing a lively show at a time when other plants are fading.  Beyond Midnight isn’t just a pretty face however.  It’s also beloved by butterflies, bees and hummingbirds who are sure to appreciate its presence in your yard, and the late season nourishment it provides.
