Feathery blue foliage is striking, and will look lovely with your home – especially with tricky-to-match red or orange brick! Naturally grows as a narrow column. Needs superb drainage – do not plant in low-lying area or anywhere that standing water occurs, even occasionally. Rarely requires pruning but may be trimmed in spring if desired.
