Lungwort (Pulmonaria)
Spotted Beauty for the Shade
Lungwort is a fantastic solution for brightening up a dark, shady corner. It is grown for its unique leaves, which are green with striking silver or white polka dots. In early spring, it produces clusters of funnel-shaped flowers that often start pink and mature to blue on the same plant.
Why You Need It:
- Deer Resistant: The hairy leaves are unappealing to deer.
- Early Bloomer: Provides nectar for the very first bees of spring.
- Foliage Interest: The spotted leaves look exotic and interesting all season.
Planting Tips:
Thrives in Full Shade to Part Shade. It loves moisture, so don't let it dry out completely. It pairs beautifully with Ferns and Hostas.
