Description

Exceptionally long-blooming. early flowering, from a young age* compact growth habit* very heavy bud set Exceptionally floriferous and long-blooming, Silmakivi? sets masses of icy-blue blooms, each with a broad white stripe down the center of every petal. The first flowers arise in early summer, and new blooms are still opening in autumn. Like all the Kivistiks, Silmakivi? begins blooming quite young, a season or two in advance of other cultivars.Just 5 to 6 feet long, this plant is ideal for containers as well as garden growth. It is hardy through zone 2 in the north, yet tolerates the heat and humidity of the deep south, southwest, and midwest without dropping a leaf. It makes a fine companion to another Kivistik cultivar, neon-pink Huvi.
