blue-purple tones that give the plant real presence rather than just an occasional splash of colour. Its main flowering season is usually from late autumn into spring, often extending toward the first warm weeks, while in mild conditions it may also produce scattered blooms outside the main season. The flowers are rich in nectar, so the plant also works as a living point of interest in the garden. Given full sun and sharply drained soil, it becomes an excellent choice for a low hedge, screening or as a standalone feature that looks elegant without demanding high-maintenance care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"fx-dose\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLight\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-big\"\u003e☀️ Sun\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-note\"\u003eGives cleaner flowering.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWatering\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-big\"\u003e💧 Low\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-note\"\u003eReduce once established.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFlowering\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-big\"\u003e💠 Long\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-note\"\u003eMain flush in cooler weather.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eToughness\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-big\"\u003e🧊 Hardy\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dose-note\"\u003eDrought and light frost.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"fx-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes it special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e💠 Blue-purple tubular flowers with a brighter throat, standing out clearly against the dark green foliage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌿 Dense evergreen habit that also works well as a hedge or structural planting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🪶 Nectar-rich flowers that bring movement and life into the garden.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🧱 In a low hedge or screening line for a cohesive evergreen mass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📍 As a feature shrub in a border, where you want colour through the cooler season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🏡 In Mediterranean-style, low-water plantings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"fx-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"box box--placement\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to place it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant it outdoors in a full-sun position with soil that drains well.
