Click here for some pictures. Warning not a fast download but worth it. Some wonderful winter purpling. Blue to pink flowers. Shade to partial sun.
Leaves are short petioled and form a tight mound of well-spotted foliage.
Great highly silvered foliage and outstanding vigor make this a great plant for American gardens. Flower spikes have tightly packed heads of pinkish red buds, which open to violet flowers. Admired and named by Beth Chatto for the plantsman Reginald Kay Links to other sights with info on Pulmonaria. Pest resistant, slug resistant, hardy and attractive are all traits of this genus. Newer forms, especially those derived from Pulmonaria villarsae have shown tremendous mildew resistance, a bane to older forms.
