Pulmonaria ‘Dark Vader’

Despite their unfortunate common name, Lungworts are among the most dependable and showy spring-blooming perennials, and many types have attractive foliage throughout the season. This outstanding selection features clusters of deep-purple bells, the hairy dark-green leaves are heavily spotted in silver. Plants should be cut back hard immediately after blooming, to rejuvenate the leaves, which will then remain attractive all season. Evergreen in mild winter regions. USPP#12333: unlicensed propagation prohibited. Registered with COPF.
