A Bloomin' Easy® variety, Caryopteris Beekeeper™ was bred with busy young homeowners and their modern-sized outdoor spaces in mind, Caryopteris Beekeeper™ has a diminutive, well-kept form, fitting into small spaces nicely, and easy-care attitude, requiring little maintenance. In fact, this perennial shrub requires just three steps: plant, water, relaxsuccess.
And this newly improved variety of Caryopteris is even more beautiful, its cornflower blue clusters resting against vibrant chartreuse, with a pop of gold, foliage. The plant is attractive even before it blooms. Leaves turn slightly greener in summer and stay healthy looking, neither burning nor spotting.
You know with a name like Beekeeper, this bluebeard is bee haunted, but Caryopteris Beekeeper™ actually calls to all pollinators.
