About This Plant

Ceanothus cuneatus is an ornamental shrub valued for its seasonal interest and the role it plays in the garden landscape.

Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 5 to 9. Provide consistent moisture during establishment. Watch for general pest pressures common to the region.
