Know before you buy
This plant thrives in partial to full shade. It performs best in areas protected from the harsh afternoon sun, which helps keep the foliage looking fresh throughout the summer.
Yes, Pulmonaria is a hardy perennial suitable for USDA Zones 3-9. It is designed to withstand cold winters and will return each spring.
For optimal growth and coverage, space your plants 12 inches apart. Since they have a mature spread of 15-20 inches, this spacing allows them to fill in nicely as a groundcover.
Yes, Pulmonaria is considered deer resistant. While no plant is entirely deer-proof if food sources are scarce, the texture and taste of these leaves are generally unappealing to deer.
While not strictly necessary, you can trim back the flower stalks after they fade to keep the plant looking tidy. The silver-spotted foliage remains attractive and provides interest for the rest of the season.
Absolutely. Because they are compact and shade-loving, they work well in containers, provided the pots have good drainage and you maintain consistent moisture.
