This sub-shrub can withstand heat. Take care to plant it in soil that drains exceptionally well. Fertilizing once per month will encourage its growth. Full sun encourages flowering and also strengthens its stems.

This is a low-growing Perovskia, with flower spikes that are shorter than those of other varieties. The bluish lavender spikes are long lasting and offset the silver-gray of this plant’s foliage. Foliage is fragrant and attracts pollinators and gardeners alike. It fills a space with lots of wispy, lacy drama. And due to its lower growing habit, it can take place front-and-center in the garden. Try it in perennial borders.
