Amsonia tabernaemontana 'Blue Ice'

Plant Description

Blue Ice' is a shorter and more compact form of Bluestar. Growing just 12 to 15 inches tall, it has darker blue buds and flowers which start later and last longer. It has a dense growth form and very nice yellow fall color. And like the others, it does best in full sun or light shade and average soil. Long lived, easy, and pretty, this one would be the perfect choice where short and bushy is what you need.
