Brunnera Siberian Bugloss Alexanders Great

Brighten shaded gardens with Alexander’s Great Bugloss, a bold perennial prized for its oversized, heart-shaped leaves dusted in shimmering silver and traced with rich green veins. In spring, airy sprays of delicate blue flowers rise above the foliage, adding a soft pop of color that pairs beautifully with the luminous leaves below. The mounded habit creates strong visual impact in shade gardens, woodland borders, and containers, where the foliage helps lighten darker spaces. Adaptable and easy to grow, this variety performs best in partial to full shade with evenly moist soil, making it a reliable choice for low-light areas.
