Ceanothus 'dark star'
* California Lilac
|
| The upright pyramidal nature of Ceanothus
'Dark Star' lends itself
very nicely to being used as an informal screen. Ceanothus Dark Star is dense and dark and makes a
great backdrop for brightly colored flowers or light gray foliage. I have seen plants
get to 8' tall but that is the exception. The dark blue flowers come on in the
spring. Ceanothus Dark Star is a cross between Ceanothus impressus and Ceanothus
papillosus. I often use it in combination with the prostrate Ceanothus
hearstiorum. The leaves and flowers have similar color and
character.
