Blue Gem™ possibly is one of the best flowering Westringia. Vibrant bluish-purple flowers stand out against very attractive grayish foliage. Responds well to pruning after flowering to maintain its compact habit. Blooms profusely in spring with occasional blooms throughout the year. Water regularly to establish. Full sun. Excellent selection for a native garden.
