Brunnera m. 'Jack Frost' PP13859

Brunnera 'Jack Frost' is a stunning perennial prized for its striking, heavily silver-frosted leaves with contrasting dark green veins, creating a shimmering effect in the shade garden. In spring, it produces delicate sprays of tiny, sky-blue flowers that hover above the foliage, resembling forget-me-nots. This versatile plant is perfect for brightening up woodland settings, borders, or containers where it adds light and texture. It thrives in consistent moisture and well-drained soil, forming a handsome, low-maintenance clump that reliably returns each year.

Plant in part to full shade in consistently moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water regularly, especially during dry periods, and avoid hot, afternoon sun which can scorch the leaves. Apply a layer of mulch to help retain soil moisture. Cut back old foliage in late fall or early spring.
