This mat-forming herbaceous plants is a perfect foil for path edges and provides a wonderful contrast with paler coloured foliage plants such as Brunnera macrophylla ‘Alexanders Great’. Short spikes of blue flowers pop up in spring and this flower colour always works well with the yellow blooms of Alchemilla mollis. Garden care: Once established, rejuvenate and minimise congestion by lifting and dividing clumps in late autumn or early spring every two years.
