Description

A semideciduous perennial, the Heartleaf Brunnera bears large, rounded, heart-shaped leaves to 10" long by 6" wide. Borne on open spikes are tiny, clear sky-blue flowers that appear most heavily in spring, but with some in bloom almost all year. It is damaged below 25 degrees F, but is definitely hardier than it looks. -Monterey Bay Nursery

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
