DESCRIPTION
Caryopteris × clandonensis 'Dark Knight’ is a compact, deciduous shrub celebrated for its deep blue flower clusters that bloom from late summer into fall. The flowers emerge on new growth, making this plant ideal for annual pruning. The aromatic foliage complements its blooms, enhancing its appeal in garden settings. Its compact habit makes it an excellent choice for smaller spaces or as part of a mixed border.
'Dark Knight' is especially valued for its ability to attract pollinators, including bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The late-season blooms provide vital resources for these creatures, making it a great addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. Additionally, its drought tolerance and low-maintenance requirements make it suitable for xeriscaping or Mediterranean-inspired designs.
