Description
Pulmonaria 'Diana Clare'
Height x Spread: 30cm x 30cm
This Pulmonaria has attractive silvery-green foliage, which provides interest in the garden before the large violet blue flowers appear during late winter/early spring.
It is a vigorous bushy grower which prefers a humus-rich, moisture-retentive soil in light or dappled shade. A fantastic plant for woodland gardens or to underplant trees and shrubs, it can be grown on slopes or be used as ground cover. After flowering shear the leaves back to encourage a burst of fresh foliage growth.
