About This Plant

Eremophila glabra Blue Alarm # is valued for its garden character and seasonal interest in PNW landscapes.

Eremophila glabra Blue Alarm # 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.
