Pulmonaria saccharata ‘Leopard’


Lungwort

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.449.410


Despite their unfortunate common name, Lungworts are among the most dependable and showy spring-blooming perennials, and many types have attractive foliage throughout the season. This selection features light pink buds that open to clusters of reddish-pink bells, the green leaves are heavily spotted in silver. Plants should be cut back hard immediately after blooming, to rejuvenate the leaves, which will then remain attractive all season. Evergreen in mild winter regions. Clumps may be easily divided in early fall.
