Polemonium Reptans Stairway To Heaven (PBR) | 9cm Pot

Pale blue to white flowering perennial with variegated leaves. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: fertile, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: slow to average Flowering period: April to May Hardiness: fully hardy Forming a low mound of ferny leaves, each mid-green leaflet is strongly edged in creamy white and is flushed with pink during the cooler spring weather. In mid to late spring this foliage is crowned with upright stems bearing clusters of light blue to white flowers. This delightful and colourful perennial is ideal for edging a partially shaded border, or for growing beside a woodland path. Garden care: Cut the plant back straightaway after flowering to encourage a second flush of flowers. In autumn cut the faded flowerheads down to the ground and compost the dead stems.
