Chaste tree (Vitex agnus-castus) is a deciduous shrub growing to 3 m by 3 m.
It bears blue flowers repeatedly in summer in our area.
We have already grown one in the blue border,
and cut it two-feet high above the ground in late autumn every year.
We planted another one at the center of the central raised bed last year,
and it is flowering now a bit earlier than that in the blue border.
セイヨウニンジンボクは落葉性の低木で高さと幅が3メートルほどになります.
うちの辺りでは夏の間繰り返し青い花を咲かせます.
うちではブルーボーダー花壇ですでに育てていて、
毎年晩秋に地面から60センチほどの高さで剪定をします.
昨年、中央花壇の真ん中にもう一つ植え付けたのが、
ブルーボーダー花壇のより一歩早く咲いています.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Dee.
DeleteI really recommend this plant because it looks cool, and it is easy to control its width and height.
