    Plant Type: Perennials

    Blue Pearl has deep blue flowers that reach well above the foliage. Blooms throughout the summer, but not in extreme heat. A great improvement over the old 'Jacob's Ladder'.It is a long lived plant with blue flowers and the divided foliage attractively arched. Very nice at the base of small shrubs or bush roses. The flower's fragrance draws people to wherever it is planted. Protect from late day sun.
