Comments: Plumbago ariculata grows 4 to 6 feet tall and sprawls 5 to 6 feet wide if unsupported. On a fence it will grow to cover the structure. Frost may burn the top but the woody base survives to bloom quickly in Spring and throughout much of the year depending on water and fertility. It is moderately salt tolerant and pest free.
