Ceratostigma


Ceratostigma (Ceratostigma Willmottianum)

I taught my little grandson to say this when he was five - so he could impress his Mum!

It's a pretty little shrub, Mp. It grows from the ground every year - only up to about 2'6" I suppose.

They grow really easily from seed. I have 4 of these and they flower for a very long time. You say that they grow from the ground each year Spritz. Do you cut them right back every year?

Very useful plant, had mine many years.

Yes, I cut it right back in the spring.
