A classic shade perennial! A silver-leaved Brunnera with huge, 7-8-inch wide leaves that hold up in the heat better than most. Sprays of forget-me-not-like, blue flowers in spring float above the foliage. Lovely plant for shady borders, naturalized gardens, patio gardens and as low edging plants or ground covers. Prefers moist soil with plenty of organic matter and good drainage. Grows 6-12″ and prefers full to partial shade. Hardy to Zone 4. Photo courtesy of Ball Seed.
