Description

Deer brush is a semi-deciduous bush that is polymorphous. Some forms are so nearly evergreen as to be evergreen, eight foot tall, bush like with nearly glossy large rounded leaves. While others are clearly deciduous with very narrow pointy leaves and a decumbent habit. Very diverse, plants from the San Benito area are low elevation and evergreen(or very near it), plants from the higher elevations are almost decidous at first frost. Unpredictable, but generally poor in the inland desert areas but excellent in the mountains. Ceanothus integerrimus is a fairly cold hardy ceanothus (-10deg.F.?). Deer brush is a north slope plant that also lives under the shade or part shade of conifers like Coulter Pine, White Fir, and Ponderosa Pine or oaks like Interior Live oak. Soils can range from gravelly granite, red clays to some nasty white clays. In the Santa Lucias Deer brush can be found with Ceanothus sorediatus, Ceanothus papillosus roweanus, Ceanothus leucodermis, Canyon Live Oak and Arbutus menziesii.
