Comment |
Clump-forming form. Suitable for a damp, shaded site in a rock garden, wild or woodland garden, or peat bed. Flowers emerge as the leaves unfold. "A great one for a shady spot this bears white, cup-shaped flowers, borne just as the grey-blue leaves emerge. It thrives in moist, shady areas and is fully hardy." from R.V. Roger. Available from R. V. Roger. |
