Brunnera macrophylla ‘Looking Glass’


Siberian Bugloss

 USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.106.260


A superb introduction, forming a clump of heart-shaped leaves, frosted entirely in shimmering silver. Sprays of bright blue Forget-me-not flowers appear in mid to late spring. This is a choice collector’s plant but easy to grow. An excellent candidate for the woodland garden or edging any shady bed. Foliage begins small in the spring, later expanding and developing the silver sheen which lasts the entire season long. USPP#17829, CPBR#3115: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
