PETIT BLEU™ BLUEBEARD Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
Caryopteris is slightly difficult to grow and needs to be planted in locations where it does not stay wet. Feed once a year with a slow release fertilizer.

These are outstanding in August and September when the rest of the garden is winding down. The smaller butterflies and other polinators (including hummers!) love the nectar. The plants generously offer volunteers that appear to be true to form, and can be easily transplanted to other parts of your garden, or simply removed.
