Plant profile: Brunnera macrophylla 'Jack Frost'



BRUNNERA MACROPHYLLA 'JACK FROST'

DEER RESISTANT SHADE PLANT - LOW MAINTENANCE
zone 3
12 - 15" tall and wide
blooms: mid-spring to late spring

The blue blooms of Brunnera are similar to those of forget-me-nots, but even after the blooms have faded the silver veined foliage will continue to add color and texture to your shade garden all season long. Can tolerate part sun to full shade. Pair with painted ferns, pulmonaria, and other silver leafed shade plants.
