DESCRIPTION

Polemonium 'Purple Rain' is a clump-forming perennial prized for its striking variegated foliage. In spring, each green leaf is beautifully edged in creamy white, providing multi-season interest even when not in bloom. It produces clusters of deep purple, bell-shaped flowers on tall stems in late spring to early summer. This plant is perfect for brightening shady borders, woodland gardens, or shaded container arrangements. It thrives in rich, consistently moist, well-drained soil and prefers part to full shade.

PLANTING & CARE

Plant in part to full shade. Prefers rich, consistently moist, well-drained soil. Water regularly to maintain even moisture, especially if planted in sunnier locations. Remove spent flower stems to encourage a tidy appearance. Divide clumps every 3-4 years in spring to maintain vigor.
