Beyond Midnight Bluebeard is not only one of the bluest flowers available,
|
||
it blooms in the late summer/through fall when most other flowers are spent,
|
||
or are rusty yellows and reds. Beyond Midnight is a sturdy fall sub-shrub
|
||
that looks fantastic contrasted with the bright colors of coneflower,
|
||
the rustic colors of sedums, and placed in front of tall fall grasses.

|
||
Beyond Midnight makes a 2.5’ tidy ball in the garden, and loves warm, dry spots.
|
||
This is a true late bloomer, and will push new growth later in spring.
|
||
It makes a good companion for spring bulbs;
|
||
you can have some color while waiting for Beyond Midnight to put on its vibrant show.

The Beyond Midnight Bluebeard shrub is only $25.60 this week for a 2 gallon pot.

|
||
What a great way to perk up your fall yard with something more drought
|
||
tolerant than a plant you may have lost in this year’s hot, dry summer.
