Where to Plant Ceanothus Pacific Wave
Plant Ceanothus Pacific Wave in a sunny, well-drained position where its vibrant blue flowers can make maximum impact. It works beautifully along fences, within larger garden beds, as an informal screen or as a colourful standalone specimen.
For hedging or screening, allow sufficient room for plants to develop their naturally broad, bushy shape. Light pruning after flowering can help maintain a denser and more compact form.
Growing Ceanothus Pacific Wave in Melbourne
Ceanothus Pacific Wave is well suited to many Melbourne and Victorian gardens, particularly where summers can become warm and relatively dry. Once established, it develops good drought tolerance and generally performs best in free-draining soil. Avoid persistently wet or waterlogged positions.
