Description
Evolvulus glomeratus ‘Beach Bum Blue’ is a striking, low‐growing herbaceous perennial—often grown as an annual—known for its profusion of vivid blue, star‑shaped blooms with white centers and silvery‑green, velvety oval foliage. Native to Brazil and surrounding regions, it forms clumping, mounding groundcover about 6 inches tall with a spreading habit up to around 12 inches wide, thriving in full sun and well-drained soils while displaying notable tolerance to heat, drought, and salt conditions. The flowers close in the evening or on cloudy days and reopen with sunlight, providing long-lasting color from spring through fall with essentially no deadheading. This variety has earned recognition as an award‑winning annual for its extended bloom and effortless performance.
