Professional Growing Information I have grown this plant for 4 years in zone 7A. In late spring it has its heaviest bloom time. Then, it is covered with tiny peachy-colored flowers. Cut back and you will get a few blossoms here and there over the summer, especially in September. The needle-like, blue-green foliage provides textural and winter interest. Be sure to provide good drainage.
