Navelwort? What does this grow in dirty bellybuttons? The sky blue flowers are rather pretty and it is less painful than a piercing, however we recommend troughs especially if you have an outie. What's next, Inverted Nipplewort? ZONE 5

Surely one of the best with electric blue flowers nearly twice the size of the species. A favorite plant of gardener-to-the-stars Duane West, former Heronswood honcho and a fave of ours as well. Vigorous and not fussy coarse foliaged groundcover perfect under Rhododendrons.
