‘Storm Cloud’ is an improved selection of Blue Star that performs well for both northern and southern growers. It emerges in the spring with new stems that are near black; with leaves that are very dark green with silver veins. Stems will stay dark throughout the spring and light periwinkle blue, star-shaped flowers will completely cover the foliage in late spring, reblooming for many weeks afterward.
