Attractive turquoise-blue berries. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: May Hardiness: fully hardy Flattened heads of tubular white flowers in May, followed (on female plants if there is a male plant nearby) by metallic, turquoise blue fruit, and distinctively veined, dark green leaves. This compact evergreen shrub is an attractive groundcover plant for the front of a border in sun or partial shade. Forming a low, dome-like shape, it's an important visual 'anchor' for taller perennials and shrubs. Please note: both male and female plants are needed to produce berries but unfortunately we cannot guarantee the sex of our plants. Garden care: Requires minimal pruning. To retain a neat, dome-like shape cut back to strong stems or the base of the plant.
