General Information:
Brunneras are ideal for a woodland setting, a semi-shaded border, or along a pond edge. Heart-shaped leaves with fabulous forget-me-not blue flowers. New cultivars with interesting leaf colorations bring new focus to Brunnera. Will multiply politely.
Plant Care:
Clean up in spring - declining leaves act as mulch for winter protection. Low maintenance otherwise. Division not needed for 6-10 years or longer unless clumps die out in the center. Volunteer seedlings can be removed from base of parent and transplanted.
