Pulmonaria cevenensis
Lungwort
Cevennensis Lungwort brings vivid blue-purple flowers to the spring shade garden. Long, narrow leaves are dark green with scattered white spots, giving the plant a finer texture than broad-leaved lungworts.
The foliage forms a low clump that suits woodland edges and the front of a shaded border. Its patterned leaves provide interest beyond the main flowering period.
Grow in partial to full shade in fertile, evenly moist soil with good drainage.
