Ceanothus thyrs. 'Millerton Point'

Ceanothus thyrs. 'Millerton Point', this evergreen American lilac is a medium to large, broad-growing shrub that blooms profusely with white flowers from May to June. This lilac has green, glossy leaves, likes a position in full sun and does well in almost all soils, as long as they are not too nutrient-rich and wet. In severe winters, some leaf drop and freezing can occur, protecting young plants. Ceanothus is well tolerant to sea winds but has a hard time with strong, cold winds.
