How's this for brightening up the shade? This is King's Ransom brunnera, a sport of Jack Frost. It is a perennial favorite in my garden for so many reasons. First of all, check out those adorable, super bright, blue flowers! They are just like forget me not blooms but when the flowers are gone the show is not over. With cream and silvery veiled green leaves to rival the beauty of hosta and stellar pest resistance, this one is a real winner. After the deer and rabbits have eaten everything else in the garden I can always count on having at least this one little plant; a real die hard.
I like it. I have 'Jack Frost' which I think is kind of over the top. This looks a bit more subtle.
ReplyDeleteGreat pic. Our brunnera is also missed by the deer. jim
