Product description
Ceanothus 'Edinburgh' is a variety of the popular Californian Lily, which are known to be an easy to grow and low maintenance option for any garden as well as bringing a vibrancy and colour to any area its planted thanks to its toothed, dark green leaves which contrast nicely as a background to the clusters of rich blue flowers which appear dotted throughout the foliage from Spring through to mid-Summer.
Plant in moist, well-drained soil and keep in full sun for the best flower colour. Tolerates drier soils and salty coastal winds but does require some protection from frost during the colder winter months.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Provide a support to train the plant for more structured, formal appearance.
How to Water
Water regularly during the first few growing seasons. After this, ceanothus is drought tolerant and only needs to be watered during particularly dry spells. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
How to Plant
Choose a sheltered spot out of strong winds and plant ceanothus in full sun in well-draining soil. Dig a hole around twice as wide as the root ball and position the plant so the top of the root ball is at soil level. Backfill with soil and compost, gently firm down, and water in well.
