Care Guide
Excellent pest and disease resistance
Brunnera are usually free from pests and diseases
Water well in summer
This plant needs nothing more than rain water throughout most of the year. During hot, prolonged dry periods in summer however, you may have to give the plant a good watering several times a week. If the plant starts to look distressed and the soil around it is very dry, then give the plant some more water and check up on it the next day.
Partial to full shade
Brunnera does best in a cool shady area - under trees or shrubs is perfect!
Any moist, well-drained soil
Plant in any moist, well-drained soil. If your soil is particularly poor or clay heavy, add some garden compost with perlite to improve drainage.
Feeding not required
This is a low maintenance plant which gets all the nutrients it needs from the soil. ?v=1613300718
