Description

Yankee Point is one of the most popular forms of spreading shrubs. Its glossy oval leaves of 2" in diameter are bright green and tasty for deer. The tiny, light blue flowers are abundant and form 1" clusters in spring. This shrub benefits from pruning when the plant is not blooming. It does best in well-drained, sandy or rocky soil with little to no summer water. This shrub is used as a ground cover since it reaches 2.5' tall and may slowly spread to 15'.
