Eremophila “Summertime Blue”
I don’t know why I’m posting this flower. It’s not very pretty. It’s not a cactus or succulent or a California Native. It is drought tolerant, so I guess that’s why. It’s from Australia, so I guess you can appreciate that too. It will grow to 6ft. tall and the grassy needle-like leaves are evergreen, so you might want to think about THAT.
And if that doesn’t interest you, how about THIS. Yesterday I went to an eye doctor for the first time and got a progressive prescription for the first time so now I will be wearing glasses all the time and not just using drug-store-readers occasionally hanging off the front tip of my nose like a librarian in Wichita, Kansas.

We have several of these bushes and they are blooming machines. Eremophila maculata is smaller, has red flowers and has been blooming solid for the past two years in our garden. Great plants for the low water garden in California.
