Introducing the exquisite Andromeda polifolia ‘Blue Lagoon’, a stunning addition to any garden or landscape. This captivating evergreen shrub boasts a compact height of around 1 to 2 feet, making it perfect for smaller gardens, rockeries, or as a feature plant in larger landscapes. Its striking blue-green foliage provides year-round interest, while delicate pinkish-white bell-shaped flowers emerge in late spring to early summer, adding a touch of charm to the garden.
For optimal growth and beauty, plant Andromeda polifolia ‘Blue Lagoon’ in a partially shaded to full sun position with acidic, moist, well-drained soil. It thrives in areas with high humidity and appreciates a layer of mulch to retain moisture and keep its roots cool. Planting in early spring or early autumn allows the shrub to establish itself before extreme weather sets in.
Andromeda polifolia ‘Blue Lagoon’ is not only a visual delight but also a magnet for pollinators. Bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects are attracted to its nectar-rich flowers, making it a valuable addition to pollinator-friendly gardens. By incorporating ‘Blue Lagoon’ into your outdoor space, you not only enhance its aesthetic appeal but also contribute to the support and preservation of local pollinator populations, creating a vibrant and biodiverse garden ecosystem.
