I planted this E. characias hybrid from Georgia's Itsaul Plants, expecting it to die like most of my other E. characias selections. After a summer with several consecutive weeks of 100 F + heat and humidity, it looked good as new...I'm impressed! Our clump has made a compact 2' tall x 2' wide upright mound in good growing conditions. The narrow blue recurved-edge leaves take on a purple hue in the winter months and are topped with short stalks of yellow flowers in March/April. Good drainage is the key for all E. characias forms and hybrids.
