Emily Brown Ceanothus

Ceanothus 'Emily Brown' is a stunning California native shrub prized for its deep blue flowers and compact, mounding form. This cultivar produces abundant clusters of tiny blooms in spring, attracting pollinators and adding vibrant color to native gardens and landscapes. Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, 'Emily Brown' thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. It requires minimal water and maintenance, making it an excellent choice for water-wise gardens, coastal properties, and drought-tolerant designs.
