If what you are seeking is an old English cottage garden feel or a filler for between patio stones, you absolutely must consider Laurentia f. 'Blue', commonly referred to as Blue Star Creeper. She is shorter than other plants commonly sold as Blue Star Creeper, more tolerant of foot traffic, and has more symmetric delicate, dainty periwinkle star-shaped blooms from late spring until early fall.
Speaking of her flowers, Blue Star offers an abundance of lovely, delicate, star-shaped, sky-blue (3/8-inch) blossoms that emerge in late spring and persist until early fall. Lush, vibrant green foliage spreads to form a dense, low mat which when left to her own devices, will slowly carpet empty spaces with thick green beauty.
Adding instant age and elegance to a new garden, Blue will create not only color but also textural richness. This is the type of plant that will make you want to put in stepping stones just to enjoy her foliage and intricate blue blossoms as they lazily wander around the path.
Gardener Tips When planting between stepping stones that have narrow gaps (or in other narrow rows), you can separate each plant into 2-4 smaller plants and plant them closer together. This will fill in gaps more uniformly and efficiently. See the "Care" tab for more information.
Blue Star is excellent for planting over lilies and other bulbs: it adds another layer of color, and shades roots without interfering with their growth.
Her height varies depending on sun exposure. Mature height is flatter in full sun and fluffier in partial shade.
Blue Star Creeper is toxic and should not be ingested by humans or animals. The sap may be irritating to people with sensitive skin. Best to wear gloves when working with this plant and wash up thoroughly when you are done.
I received my shipment of Blue Star Creeper very quickly, well packed and super healthy, as always.
This was my fourth or fifth order from CGC, and I'm sure not my last!
i had seen this other places , but when i went to click the complete order , it said i wont be shipped until september , i found classy ground covers ordered the creepers & in a few days they where on my door step , sweet
I ordered 2 packages of 25 blue star creeper, and they arrived within a week. They were packaged well to protect the integrity of the plants, were very healthy, and are now taking off in my newly landscaped lawn edging. I am very pleased.
If using
between pavers or stepping stones, it is recommended that you plant them such that the soil level is one to one-and-a-half inches below the top of the walking surface to allow room for the plants to compress when stepped on.
