Beyond Midnight™ Caryopteris (Caryopteris x clandonensis ‘CT-9-12’), also known as bluebeard or blue mist shrub, is a striking late-summer bloomer that brings rich, deep blue flowers and glossy dark green foliage to the garden just when color is most needed. This compact deciduous shrub reaches about 2 to 2.5 feet tall and wide, making it perfect for small gardens, perennial borders, and pollinator plantings. From late summer through early fall, Beyond Midnight™ produces clusters of vivid blue flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators.
This heat-tolerant, drought-resistant shrub thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it an excellent choice for xeriscapes, foundation beds, and low-maintenance borders. Its tidy mounded habit requires minimal pruning, and it pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, coneflowers, and other sun-loving perennials. Unlike older Caryopteris varieties, Beyond Midnight™ features exceptionally dark, glossy foliage that provides dramatic contrast with its electric blue blooms, adding bold texture and color to the late-season landscape.
Gardeners will appreciate Beyond Midnight™ Caryopteris not only for its beauty and pollinator value but also for its durability and ease of care. Deer-resistant and tolerant of dry conditions once established, this Proven Winners™ selection is ideal for eco-friendly gardens and water-wise landscapes. Whether planted as a border accent, in mixed containers, or in mass for a bold blue display, Beyond Midnight™ delivers long-lasting, low-maintenance color that keeps your garden glowing well into fall.
