Description
Lovely Color on a Carefree Trailing Groundcover

A gorgeous, fragrant solution to all those touch garden spots!

Plant Patent #9,124. Cultivar name: 'Renzels'.

Imagine a stand of Irene tumbling over a low wall or spreading across the dry, sun-soaked ground in your garden! This tough little garden gem is one of the most ornamental plants around, yet there is no beating its usefulness when sheer coverage (and plenty of color!) is needed. This is the perfect plant for garden walls, pots, banks, or a dry, sunny patch of ground in your garden.

A superb groundcover for hot, dry locations, its habit is low and mounding, only 12 to 18 inches high but spreading vigorously 18 to 36 inches a year. In summer, deep blue-violet flowers arise in great masses. The rich color stays true even in the hottest days, refusing to bleach or fade.

Very deer and pest resistant, Irene™ is a long-lived joy in any well-drained garden soil. Best performance is in full sun. Plant Irene where you crave gorgeous color and thick coverage. The rich violet blue flowers bloom in summer and stay vibrant through heat and drought. Zones 7-10.

Arrived dead

Don’t waste your time unless you have lots of it. I ordered about 6 of these. Two arrived outright dead. The rest died in a few days. I called and waited on interminable hold until someone hung up on me. I emailed with photos but received no response.

My three plant arrives dead. I planted them anyway hoping to see new growth. But after two weeks there is only a small piece of green showing on one plant. Thus is unusual from J&P. I us it really receive healthy plants
