Bluebeard 'Snow Fairy', Snow Fairy Bluebeard
Noted for its striking variegated foliage, Caryopteris divaricata ‘Snow Fairy’ is a compact, bushy deciduous shrub with small lavender-blue flowers in late summer through early fall. They are attractive to butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects. They contrast nicely with the aromatic green leaves adorned with creamy-white edges. The ovate leaves keep their coloration and remain fresh-looking all summer long. Valued for its late season blossoms when few other shrubs are in bloom, this easy care shrub is a superb addition to any sunny garden. Perfect for small gardens or containers.
