Description:
Ceanothus americanus, commonly known as New Jersey Tea, is a native shrub with showy powder blue blooms in spring. It is notable for its ability to fix nitrogen in the soil, making it thrive in poor conditions. This drought-tolerant plant performs well in full sun to partial shade and provides shelter for small birds. Historically, it was used to make tea, adding to its cultural significance.
