Evolvulus Blue My Mind

The hotter the better, is the motto for this plant. With deep sky-blue flowers and silver-toned foliage, it’s ideal for 4.5-inch containers, gallons and baskets. Performing best in full sun, it is drought-tolerant once it is established. It needs to be protected from light frost, and deadheading is unnecessary. Blue My Mind grows between 6 to 12 inches in height and 12 to 24 inches in spread.
