Plumbago (Leadwort)

Plumbago (plum-BAY-go), more commonly known as Leadwort, is a versatile and vigorous perennial shrub admired for its clusters of pretty, sky-blue or white flowers and attractive green foliage that turns a luxuriant mahogany-red or bronze in the fall. This beautiful flowering perennial plant blooms from mid-summer through the fall, providing season-long color and visual appeal. Plumbago thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-draining soil, an outstanding choice for borders, ground cover, or containers. Its trailing habit also makes it perfect for hanging baskets or for cascading over garden walls and from window boxes. Plumbago is drought-tolerant, once established, and is relatively low-maintenance, an ideal choice for gardeners looking for a hardy, easy-care, flowering plant. In addition, its blossoms attract butterflies and bees, adding wildlife and environmental value to your landscape.
