Caryopteris × Clandonensis Stephi (‘Lisstep’) PBR) | 2L Pot

A beautiful new pink form. Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, light, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: August to September Hardiness: fully hardy A very pretty new pink-flowered caryopteris that will provide lashings of late colour. It has a bushy, upright habit, with leafy stems that are topped with tiered whorls of rose pink buds, which open to soft pink blooms towards the end of summer. It’s a great plant for extending the season of interest in a mixed border, but also fits easily into a Mediterranean or gravel-style planting scheme. Garden care: In March prune all of the flowered stems back hard to the permanent framework. After pruning apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost around the base of the plant.
