The flowers are small but plentiful and have a clear, bright color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter bloom, dark green leaves with a light sprinkling of silver keep the plant looking neat all season. It is compact, so it fits well at the front of a shade bed, among hostas, ferns and brunneras, or in a shaded container. Deer and rabbits rarely bother it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTiny, funnel-shaped flowers under half an inch long in a light periwinkle blue with a hint of violet, carried in small nodding clusters that cover the top of the plant. Flower stems are short and hairy, rising just above the foliage. Leaves are narrow and lance-shaped, 5 to 8 inches long, dark green with a light sprinkling of small silver spots. The plant forms a low, tidy mound 12 to 14 inches tall and 16 to 18 inches wide. At peak bloom it looks like a small dark green cushion dotted with a haze of periwinkle blue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLungwort needs shade and soil that stays moist, so plant it away from the lavender in a shaded bed under trees, along a north wall, or beside hostas and ferns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlant in part to full shade in humus-rich soil that stays evenly moist; it tolerates dry spells poorly in sun. Hardy in zones 3-9; after flowering, cut off the old flower stems so fresh leaves fill in, and divide crowded clumps in early fall if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pulmonaria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light periwinkle blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark green lightly sprinkled with silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low, compact mound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12–14 in tall × 16–18 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e part sun to part shade, full shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-April\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Flush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
