Pulmonaria 'Raspberry Splash'

Lungwort

A longtime favorite of growers and gardeners. Large, showy clusters of bright blue-purple buds open to raspberry pink flowers; one of the first perennials that bees forage in spring. Silver speckled foliage lights up the shade garden and forms a substantial clump. Heat tolerant selection; can tolerate more sun in cool climates. Breeder: Terra Nova Nurseries.
