Brunnera macrophylla 'Silver Heart'

Shade gardens are sometimes a frustration for those who crave the flamboyant colors available to sunny spots, especially if they are seeking out perennial or evergreen specimens. 'Silver Heart' brunnera may help ease that dilemma with its large silver leaves, heavily etched with green veins, and springtime, forget-me-not blue flowers. Best grown with partial sun (all-day dappled or morning sun), Siberian bugloss provides a pop of silver that contrasts beautifully with the varying shades of green provided by ferns, fuchsias, and other shade-loving perennials. Staying under a foot tall, 'Silver Heart' is a wonderful addition to garden borders, hanging baskets, and container planters, and plays well with shade blooming annuals. Combined with tuberous begonias and ferns in a hanging basket? Absolutely stunning!
