Caryopteris incana ‘Beyond Pink’d’
Caryopteris incana 'Beyond Pink'd' is a deciduous shrub known as bluebeard with masses of pink flowers full of nectar.
Caryopteris incana ‘Beyond Pink’d’ is a bluebeard that is not so blue! It offers copious spires of pretty pink flowers that bloom from summer through fall on new wood. The plants are dense and mounding with large, glossy, ovate leaves. Use in the border, for mass plantings, as a specimen, and for cut flowers. Prune in spring just above big healthy buds for dense new growth and a knockout floral display. Good in average soil with good drainage. Deadheading is not necessary. Rich in nectar for hummingbirds and other pollinators. Deer resistant.
