Plant Growth Form : Shrub

Landscaping

Known to be a scandent (semi-climbing) shrub in Mediterranean climates where it originates, but most often seen in the Singapore landscape as free-standing shrub masses or groundcover. It can also be used as a low hedge but requires frequent clipping. It is easy to maintain and forms a dense mass of green leaves and pale blue flowers which appear almost fluorescent when viewed in under low light. However, the flowers do not stand up well to being drenched; they also remain on the plant after they have wilted, which may result in periodic unsightliness after flowering. Suitable for borders, as underplanting or in containers. A drought tolerant plant, it prefers a bright, sunny position and well-drained soil as it does not tolerate water-logging.
