Ceanothus maritimus 'Valley Violet', Valley Violet Mountain Lilac
A California native ground cover that grows up to two feet tall and four feet wide. The purple, blue flowers bloom in the spring.
Pinch and lightly prune in spring after flowering. You can remove flower clusters right after blooming to encourage a denser growth habit. If given too much water it will be short lived. You shouldn’t cut into any new growth that is larger around than a pencil. Larger cuts heal slowly and become infected with apricot dieback fungus, fungal spores are spread by rain.
