Pulmonaria ‘Victorian Brooch’
Plant number: 1.449.700
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 clusters of upfacing deep magenta-pink bells, the green leaves are lightly 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. Good tolerance to powdery mildew. USPP#11234: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
