Seasonal Progression
Foliage and flowers combine with this combo to create a bright spot in shady garden areas. ‘Queen of Hearts’ Brunnera will be up first with an early spring burst of periwinkle blue flowers. As the flowers fade massive silver leaves will overtake them and shine through the end of the year. In early summer sprays of cream flowers will emerge over the fine textured ‘Chantilly Lace’ Goat’s Beard. SHADOWLAND® Hosta vary in size and color, but all are classic, durable garden plants with strong spring and summer foliage interest.
