Ceanothus Thyrsiflorus 'Snow Flurry' (5 Gallon)
About this item
Snow Flurry California Lilac (Ceanothus thyrsiflorus ‘Snow Flurry’) is a beautiful evergreen shrub native to coastal California, prized for its glossy green foliage and spectacular spring display of fragrant, snow-white flower clusters. When in bloom, its abundant blossoms create a striking blanket of white, bringing seasonal beauty and attracting pollinators and beneficial wildlife to the garden.
With a naturally upright growth habit, this versatile shrub typically reaches 8–12 feet tall and wide. Its medium-green, glossy leaves grow up to 2 inches long, providing year-round structure and greenery. Snow Flurry can be lightly pruned to maintain its shape and is especially well suited to slopes and naturalistic landscapes.
Landscape Uses: An excellent choice for coastal gardens, native plant landscapes, wildlife gardens, and slope plantings. Its generous size makes it useful as a large accent shrub, informal screen, or standout spring-flowering specimen.
Growing Notes: Snow Flurry thrives in full sun and prefers low-water conditions once established. It is well adapted to California's Mediterranean climate and performs well on slopes with good drainage. Avoid overwatering, particularly in heavy or poorly drained soils.
