Exquisite long blooming lacecaps, whose flowers uniquely turn upside down and reveal pink undersides in late summer, plus brilliant copper red foliar fall colors are ‘Bluebird’s claim to fame. The robust, yet slow growing compact habit is defined by large pointy dark green leaves, unspotted stems and flattened gossamer-like bluish mauve inflorescences, presenting clustered rich blue fertile blossoms and 4 rounded sepals, which create the shape of a cross. Ideal as a deciduous container subject, this cold-hardy AGM recipient exhibits the bluest floral coloration in acidic soil and looks spectacular either en masse or positioned singularly on the fringes of a woodland garden.
