'''''Caryopteris''''' ('''bluebeard'''; [[Chinese language|Chinese]]: 莸属 ''you shu'') is a genus of 16 species of [[flowering plant]]s in the family [[Lamiaceae]] (formerly often placed in the family [[Verbenaceae]]), native to eastern and southern [[Asia]].<ref name=grin>Germplasm Resources Information Network: [http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/genus.pl?2136 ''Caryopteris'']</ref><ref name=foc>Flora of China: [http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=105776 ''Caryopteris'']</ref><ref name=fop>Flora of Pakistan: [http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=5&taxon_id=105776 ''Caryopteris'']</ref><ref name=rhs>Huxley, A., ed.

They are [[herbaceous plant]]s or small [[shrub]]s growing to 1–4 m tall. The [[leaf|leaves]] are opposite, simple ovate to lanceolate, with an entire or crenate margin; they are often aromatic. The [[flower]]s are blue or white. The flower are pollinated by butterflies and bumblebees. The [[fruit]] is a four-valved [[capsule (fruit)|capsule]] containing four seeds.<ref name=foc/><ref name=fop/><ref name=rhs/>

==Cultivation and uses==
Several ''Caryopteris'' species are grown as [[ornamental plant]]s in gardens. Like ''[[Buddleja]]'', the woody stems can die back in the winter, particularly in colder climates. They prefer well-drained soil in full sun, but does not need especially rich soil or constant moisture.

The [[hybrid]] ''Caryopteris × clandonensis'' (''C. incana'' × ''C. mongholica'') is commonly grown; there are several cultivars, including 'Blue Mist', 'Heavenly Blue', 'Longwood Blue', and 'Dark Knight'.

-Deciduous small shrubs: lvs. opposite, short-petioled, serrate: fls. in axillary cymes; calyx campanulate, deeply 5-lobed with lanceolate teeth, spreading and somewhat enlarged in fr.; corolla 5-lobed, with short cylindric tube and spreading limb, 1 segm. larger and fringed; stamens 4, exserted, 2 of them longer; style slender, 2-parted at the apex: fr. separating into 4 somewhat winged nutlets.—About 6 species in E.

-These are glabrous, pubescent or tomentose shrubs with small blue or violet late flowers. Free-flowering and very valuable for their late blooming season; not hardy North; even if well protected they will be killed almost to the ground, but the young shoots, springing up freely, will flower profusely the same season. They require well-drained and sandy soil and sunny position; if grown in pots, a sandy compost of peat and leaf soil or loam will suit them, and they will flower in the greenhouse until midwinter. Propagated readily by cuttings of half-ripened wood in summer or fall under glass, and by seeds sown in spring.
