Common name lungwort Family boraginaceae Life cycle perennial Flowers blue and pink (early spring) Size 12" Light part shade Cultural notes ordinary garden soil From seed self-seeds in our garden; seed short-lived We love the pink and blue flowers all on the same plant - it brightens up our shade garden in early spring, long before anything else gets into gear in that coolest part of our garden. The white-speckled foliage is nice too, although it can get a little ratty-looking by the end of summer.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: shade garden, orchard nursery area
