Info | Named for a friend at work who took an interest in my seedlings. This incredible leathery blue leaf with soft blue-white undersides is a winner for those areas that get some direct light. I tried to grow this 'Azure Snow' seedling in the shade and it withered. It loves the light and will reward you with a ground cover in a short time. |
