Ceanothus maritimus 'Valley Violet' – Santa Barbara Ceanothus

'Valley Violet' is a California native selection of maritime ceanothus with vivid violet-blue flowers, their violet tones more intense than those of many other maritime forms. Blooming very early, often beginning in late winter and continuing into spring, it provides welcome nectar when few other garden plants are flowering. Its low to medium, spreading shrub form is an excellent choice for California native gardens, combining good coastal tolerance with outstanding drought resistance once established.

Key Features:

  • Perennial shrub with a low to medium, spreading habit
  • California native selection for water-wise gardens
  • Vivid violet-blue flowers with unusually intense violet tones
  • Very early bloom provides valuable late-winter and spring nectar
  • Excellent early-season pollinator resource
  • Extremely drought tolerant once established
