Brunnera macrophylla 'Silver Heart'

Siberian Bugloss

Plant Type: Perennial

'Silver Heart' features highly showy, large, heart shaped leaves that are silver with prominent dark green veins. In spring it produces wiry stems with delicate true light blue "forget-me-not" flowers. It requires full to partial shade in order to keep its beautiful leaves from burning at the edges and consistently moist soil. It is a great candidate for use in shade gardens, woodland gardens, and edges of beds and borders. It also makes a stunning impact when used in mixed containers, especially those themed for spring and winter.
