Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Plumbago is a tender climbing evergreen perennial that forms a weeping mound if not given support.  Abundant clusters of flowers that can be pink, white, or blue bloom from summer to fall.  Prefers partial sun and consistently moist well-drained acidic soils, but has good drought tolerance once established.  Treat as an annual unless overwintered inside.

This selection is blue flowering.
