    It looks like Blue Beard but it is more of a bush than a plant and blooms late summer.

    I agree with John that it looks like you have a type of Caryopteris, or bluebeard.

    I have this but mine doesn't bloom till fall. It's a Longwood Blue Caryopteries,Caryopteris, x clandortenis 'Longwood Blue'. It is a perennial, full sun, 3 ft. high, 3 ft. wide.

    I have this plant but do not know the name. Have divided it several times and replanted in various spots. Grows well in sun or shade, we have heavy clay soit and it does well. Not evasive, slow spreading. Mine starts blooming in late Spring and continues through Summer.

    Vanessa you have your answer, it is a Caryopteris (bluebeard) but there are a number of diffferent selections. Enjoy. One of the things I like about this plant is the foliage is fragrant when you run your hand over it. I recommend full sun.
