One of the best Shrubs or Ground Covers for California Gardens. Ceanothus (the botanical name) is native to many areas of the west coast. The ground cover version (Ceanothus horizontalis) is one of my favorites. It has these brilliant blue flowers, and shiny, strong leaves. But beware, it doesn’t like too much water! Plant it with other drought tolerant perennials, such as Salvia, New Zealand Flax, and Jerusalem Sage for a colorful California Garden!
