Plant Sentry™

Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.

This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Sweet and petite, and heavenly blue, the Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Petit Bleu™ Bluebeard (Caryopteris x clandonensis 'MiniBleu') is a tiny, deciduous shrub with huge ornamental appeal! From late summer and into fall, this delicate, little shrub will be an asset for not only the ornamental appeal of your yard but also for the butterflies and other pollinators seeking a late summer-to-fall treat!

Clusters of petite, blue flowers amid tall stalks will rise up above the vibrant green of the glossy, mounded foliage. Even the foliage itself is of interest, and a light brush of your hand will release its aromatic herbal appeal. Mix with Grand Bleu® for a taller form of this petite dwarf!

Hardy and space-saving little flowering gems throughout USDA planting zones 5 to 9, these Blue Mist Spirea bushes grow just 24 - 30 inches tall and spread 24 inches in width. These grow as deciduous shrubs in warm climates but act as herbaceous perennials in colder zones, dying back to the ground in the winter. Deer tend to pass it by, and it will be a relatively carefree plant for your landscape.

Planting and Application:

Must have edging and facer shrubs, these little low-growing flowering bushes these dwarf Bluebeard bushes look wonderful as the front of the garden border accent, as a pop of color in a mixed border, a low-growing specimen in the perennial bed!

A highly beneficial pollinator garden plant, butterflies and bees will adore these dwarf Blue Mist Spirea, or be included as part of a Butterfly and wildlife garden! You could also effectively use a few Petit Bleu™ as container plants on your patio, and around your porch planters!

Dwarf Caryopteris are must-haves for en masse plantings, in rows along sunny pathways and sidewalks, and in Rock Gardens where their drought-tolerance and low-maintenance nature shines!

  • Last-Season Deep Purple-Blue Flowers
  • Aromatic Colorful Foliage
  • Fragrant Top To Bottom
  • Attracts Butterflies & Bees
  • Perfect For Containers
  • Space-Saving Landscape Use, Low Hedges, Edging & Facer Plants

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Petit Bleu™ Bluebeard has a compact, tight growth habit, and does best in full sun and partial shade locations. Requiring loose, well-drained soils and moderate, regular moisture needs. Petit Bleu™ then becomes drought-tolerant once established! It has no significant disease or insect issues to be concerned with, these are easy-to-grow shrubs, low-maintenance, and deer-resistant! A 3-4 inch deep layer of mulch is a great idea to retain additional needed moisture.

Bluebeards bloom on this year's wood (new growth) and can be hard-pruned to maintain their trim shape. Growing as perennials in colder climates, leaving the foliage in place over winter to protect the crown from winter weather. In Zones 5 and 6, you can prune them back to the ground each spring before they start to grow. In Zones 7, 8, and 9, you can trim them back by half each year in early spring.

  • Full Sun & Partial Shade
  • Adaptable To A Variety Of Well-Drained Soils
  • Moderate to Low Moisture Needs
  • Prune Early Spring - Blooms On New Wood
  • Pest & Deer-Resistant
