Imperial Blue Cape Leadwort is a tender woody evergreen perennial that can grow as a small shrub or trained as a vine.  Clusters of small sky blue flowers bloom in summer that last until the first frost.  Prefers partial sun and consistently moist well-drained acidic soils, but has good drought tolerance once established.  Treat as an annual unless overwintered inside.
