Omphalodes cappadocica ‘Starry Eyes’


Navel-seed

USDA Zone: 6-9

Plant number: 1.400.500


Navel-seed forms dense, low mounds of deep green leaves which are useful among shrubs and evergreens, or in the rock garden. Clusters of starry flowers appear in mid spring, sky-blue in colour, with a white edge. Especially attractive in combination with soft yellow daffodils. A nice addition to the woodland garden, preferring a cool, shady well-drained site. Excellent drainage is a must. Performs best in regions with cool summers. Can also be used for edging the border, and in containers or tubs. Plants may be divided in early spring, but resent being disturbed.
