Lithodora d. 'Grace Ward' 5-10 cm.

Lithodora d. ‘Grace Ward’ is a low, evergreen, mat-forming plant prized for its intensely blue, star-shaped flowers from late spring into summer. Ideal for rock gardens and wall edges, it thrives in full sun and acid, well-drained soil; avoid alkaline or chalky conditions. Expect a compact carpet around 10–15 cm high, gradually spreading to about 60–90 cm over time with good conditions.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
