Splashed wildly with misty silver, the emerald foliage of this shade-lover (to 18") catches the eye over a long 9 month season, even when its delightfully robins-egg-blue spring flowers have passed. PSh-Sh/M PPAF
Splashes of antique silver "mist" dust over emerald green hearts creating a distinctive addition to your garden. A big improvement over Brunnera 'Langtrees' and more contrast than Brunnera 'Jack Frost' but with less overall silvering. Loves moist soils and brightens up a dark corner.
