We found Ceanothus thyrsiflorus 'Born Again' at Rancho Santa Ana in Claremont, California, and decided to test it with our other ceanothus. It has proven winter hardy through two difficult winters with occasional burning of the leaves at low temperatures. After 4 years it is still a small compact shrub although the species can often get very large. Rounded, glossy and broadly variegated with yellow margins, the leathery leaves are especially attractive. Try this to brighten up a low-water garden.
