Ceanothus (California Lilac)

Valued for their striking blue flower panicles, Ceanothus (California Lilac) offer almost everything a gardener could wish for in a shrub: free-flowering, lovely foliage, ease of cultivation, drought and salt tolerance. How to Build a Beautiful Drought Tolerant Garden

Fast growing, these spectacular North American native shrubs are quite versatile. Some are evergreen and can be grown against walls or as free-standing shrubs. Others are deciduous or prostrate spreading and suitable as ground cover. When a California Lilac bursts into bloom, it is a dazzling sight to anyone.
