Ceanothus Mountain Haze. California Lilac (9)

During April and May the shrub is a mass of flowers, in smaller 
clusters than Sierra Blue, but borne in greatest profusion all over the

dark green foliage to produce the effect which gave the hybrid its 
name, Mountain Haze. This variety may also be pruned to a desired 
height and can be used as a hedge. Hybridized by Dr. Walter E. Lam-
