Description

'Boule' is a reliable perennial that grows 2' tall and wide. It has a mounding habit with outer arching branches, thus making it ideal for spilling over walls and planters. Leaves are small, narrow, aromatic, and green. Clusters of blue flowers appear in spring, attracting bees. Plant in full sun. Does well in coastal areas. It is drought tolerant once it's established.

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
