A truly garden worthy hybrid that combines strong growth, dark green leaves, hardiness and compact habit. Delicate soft fuzzy misty blue blue flowers appear in spring, followed by red seed capsules that extend garden interest in late summer. Highly versatile and tolerant of dry and infertile soils. Excellent low mounded form, ideal for massing in the landscape or border.
