Wooly Bluecurls
There is no plant that looks more like its name than Wooly Bluecurls. This small evergreen is not only fragrant but beautiful as well. Its small blue flowers are packed in dense groups. The flowers are covered with wooly hair of blue, pink or white. These highly fragrant blooms start in early spring and they can attract a variety of wildlife. Evergreen Landscaping has helped many Pismo Beach area residents complete their butterfly gardens or hummingbird gardens with Wooly Bluecurls.
Wooly Bluecurls are usually seen in nature in areas where a fire has come through. They do not live more than a few years in a natural setting, but with proper planting and care, they can provide you with years of enjoyment. Most residents and business owners who have decided to use Wooly Bluecurls as part of their landscaping features have said that these beautiful small shrubs are definitely worth it. They add not only a great look to well-drained slopes, but the wildlife they attract is definitely an added bonus that many people enjoy.
Evergreen Landscaping can help your Wooly Bluecurls grow successfully. They can be a bit tricky, so it is best to seek help from a professional landscaper when adding these attractive shrubs to your outdoor living spaces. They require regular watering for the first year as they establish themselves. By the end of their first year, they will be almost full sized. From then on, however, even occasional summer watering has the ability to kill Wooly Bluecurls that are not properly placed.
Our professional landscapers will work with you to determine if these chaparral-family shrubs will be the best plants for your location. They require well-drained soils and should be surrounded by rocks as opposed to mulch or any other material that will hold water. When they are properly placed in a garden or hill, they can take indirect summer water up to once per month. They will work very well in most arid spaces. Many people have been surprised to find that these shrubs are just perfect for areas they thought could never support a fragrant, flowering plant, let alone one that would attract such an array of wildlife to its flowers.
These plants prefer partial shade to full sun environments. They start to produce flowers shortly after they are planted and take hold. This makes them great for a much-needed splash of color in a short time. They are native to coastal California regions and do very well in many places in the Pismo Beach area. If you have a rocky slope or a well drained mesa that you are ready to transform, Wooly Bluecurls just might be the answer to your landscaping conundrum. Evergreen Landscaping will help you find the perfect shrubs, trees and plants for to fit your needs.
