Something Blue....Dichroa febrifuga

I bought this evergreen shrub in the Hydrangea family as a rooted cutting at one of the U.B.C. plant sales a number of years ago. I am finding it a challenge to grow this one, but it is so lovely, I just have to have it. I've finally admitted I have to grow this one in a container so I can give it a little winter protection. For you in warmer climates, it should be a breeze.

This shrub blooms even on small rooted cuttings and like hydrangeas the color of the flowers depends on what type of soil they're in. After the flowers come these amazing blue fruits. Dichroa febrifuga has only been in the general market place for a couple of years. So I provided a link so you can see what it looks like.
