Pulmonaria Blue Ensign | 9cm Pot

Bright blue flowers. Position: partial shade Soil: humus-rich, moist, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: March to May Hardiness: fully hardy Often considered to be one of the best and showiest blue forms, this plain leaved, deciduous plant produces compact clusters of rich, violet-blue flowers on upright stems throughout spring. More tolerant of sun than most, the contrast between the unspotted, dark green foliage and the flower colour is very striking. Garden care: Lift and divide large clumps every three to five years after flowering or in autumn. Cut back plants affected by mildew to the ground, water and feed – the plant will regenerate and produce new leaves later in the year.
