Marvellous, mid-blue flowers from April to September and glossy, golden leaves with dark-green margins. This striking, variegated, evergreen plant is excellent groundcover for a small, sunny border. Probably the best new plant introduced in 2001, the trailing stems are ideal for softening hard landscaping or for spilling over the edges of a hanging basket.Position: full sun or partial shadeSoil: any but very dry soilRate of growth: average Flowering period: April to September Flower colour: mid-blueHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: To prevent the plant from becoming invasive cut back any unwanted shoots in springGoes well with: Choisya ternata, Kerria japonica, Hedera colchica 'Dentata Variegata', Ajuga reptans atropurpurea, Pulmonaria officinalis 'Sissinghurst White', Galanthus nivalis |
