If youre looking to paint your landscape with a splash of intense, sky-blue color that thrives when the summer heat turns up, Dark Blue Plumbago (Plumbago auriculata) is your absolute go-to. This sprawling, semi-evergreen beauty quickly grows into a lush mound about 3 to 4 feet tall and up to 5 feet wide, making it a fantastic choice for cascading over retaining walls or filling in sunny borders. It absolutely craves full sun exposure, soaking up the heat to fuel a non-stop parade of phlox-like flower clusters from spring right through the first frost. Even better for our local yards, this tough-as-nails shrub is highly resistant to both deer and rabbits, meaning you get maximum color with minimal backyard drama. Give it well-drained soil, a little room to stretch, and watch your garden come alive.
