Hello Mediterraneans!

My plant of Ceanothus 'Italian Skies' is covered in bright blue flowers for
weeks on... This year's flowering is incredible. I'd appreciate any
information about this cultivar.
I've read somewhere that it is good practice to prune evergreen Ceanothus
right after flowering. How this pruning should be done, just a light
haircut as you do with heathers, or something harder?
Can Cistus be pruned slightly after flowering to keep the plants bushier?.
Got the same question with Lavandula and Thymus pleeeeeeeze... thanks for
your help!!! :-)
