Evergreen shrub
 
Ceanothus 'Centennial'


Ceanothus 'Centennial' - Wild Lilac
A mounding groundcover shrub growing to about 2 feet tall by 10 feet wide. It has small, shiny dark green leaves and round dark blue (darker than Ceanothus 'Concha') flower clusters that in spring. Plant in light shade, makes a good groundcover at the outer edges of a live oak canopy. Noted as more heat tolerant and requiring less summer water than C. Carmel Creeper in inland plantings. We originally grew this Roger Raiche C. griseus and C. foliosus hybrid as 'Darkest Blue'
