Pulmonaria affinis
Pulmonaria affinis
Pulmonaria affinis is a charming shade-loving perennial prized for its spotted foliage and early spring flowers that shift from pink to blue as they mature. It performs best in humus-rich, consistently moist soil under the dappled shade of trees or shrubs. Cut back old leaves after flowering to encourage a fresh flush of attractive foliage through summer and autumn.
