Ceanothus leucodermis, commonly known as Chaparral Whitethorn, is a native evergreen shrub found in California and parts of the southwestern United States. It features dense clusters of small, leathery leaves with a gray-green coloration, providing year-round interest. In late spring to early summer, it produces an abundance of fragrant, white to pale blue flowers, creating a striking display.
Chaparral Whitethorn is well-adapted to arid and chaparral environments, thriving in sunny and well-drained soils. Its resilient nature makes it suitable for drought-tolerant landscapes, native plant gardens, or as a habitat plant in naturalistic settings. Beyond its ornamental value, this plant is important for supporting native pollinators and wildlife by providing food and shelter. Its elegant form and attractive blooms make Chaparral Whitethorn a versatile and beneficial addition to various outdoor spaces.
