Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Destined to become a plant we can't live without because of its hardy nature and stunning, large, blue-lavender fish-shaped flowers that have a touch of orange in the throat and on the spur. With reddish stems and a dark contrasting leaf, one really shouldn't need more. (You'd be suspect if you did.) Early to emerge in spring. 2' x 2'. An organically rich soil is best. Minimum temperature: 0°F
