The listing, Drought tolerant Blue fragrant perennial, Zones 5-10, deer resistant,Shoal Creek Chaste Tree seeds has ended.
This auction is for ten seeds from a Shoal Creek Chaste tree (Texas Lilac) I recently adopted, from a nursery. This perennial has gorgeous spires of fragrant blue blossoms and attracts butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It blooms on new growth and will repeat bloom for months, especially if dead-headed. It can be shaped into a small tree in the South and thrives in heat, but also does well where it gets frozen to the ground. It tolerates drought, does well in zones 5-10, and deer won't eat it (at least that's what the info I found says)! The photos of blooming plants are courtesy of Texas A&M, with their permission, and the other photos are of my plant. I recently bought my plant and it's only about 3' tall (including the pot), but it had bloom spires on it up to 10" long!
