Brunnera (Siberian Bugloss) at Digging Dog
Including Brunnera macrophylla varieties Dawson's White, Jack Frost, Hadspen Cream, & Langtrees
Brunnera
Siberian Bugloss
Handsome and undemanding, this ground cover forms large, tidy basal clumps of long-petioled, broad foliage, and displays charming vivid blue flowers that begin blooming in early spring and persist through Memorial Day. Preferring some shade and moisture, Brunnera is at home by water's edge, en masse in the border, or as a filler between newly planted shrubs. Brunnera macrophylla ‘Dawson’s White’
Boldly patterned with broad snowy white margins and green centers, ‘Dawson’s White’ fashions a striking variegation that is further heightened by its endearing,
forget-me-not–like azure-blue flowers. An illustrious addition for the shadows, this Brunnera likes it cool and
moist, and needs protection from too much sun or hot,
dry winds.
Blooms mid-February–June. Size: 15" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4. Brunnera macrophylla Dawson’s White (P-1099) Each $8.50

Brunnera macrophylla ‘Hadspen Cream’
Not all variegated plants can boast the sophisticated beauty displayed by this British introduction’s lovely foliage. It
features felted, heart-shaped, pale green leaves, each emarginated with an irregular, rich cream-colored swath. Delicate sprays of starry blue flowers dance above on graceful stems, offering a soothing yet vibrant presence in a shady spot.
Blooms mid-February–June. Size: 15" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4. Brunnera macrophylla Hadspen Cream (p-0804) Each $8.50

Brunnera macrophylla ‘Jack Frost’
Awash in a mercury-like effulgence, broad heart-shaped leaves are etched by light green veins creating the most dramatic crackled ceramic pattern. ‘Jack Frost’s highly refined silvered persona offsets bronze, green and gold foliage, while sky-blue flowers add a playful lift.
A Walters Gardens’ introduction that originated from a ‘Langtrees’s sport, this Brunnera brings sterling accents to the darker corners of your garden.(pp#13859)
Blooms mid-February–June. Size: 12"–15" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4. Brunnera macrophylla Jack Frost (P-1353) Each $9.50
Add to Cart
Brunnera macrophylla ‘Langtrees’
Neat arcs of stunning silver markings are splashed along the leaf margins of this variegated form
of Brunnera macrophylla. The deep green, thick leaves,
accompanied by sprays of tiny blue flowers, look elegant
in our woodland garden with Euphorbia
‘Great Dixter’ and Primula cockburniana
as neighbors.
Blooms mid-February–June. Size: 15" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4. Brunnera macrophylla Langtrees (P-0726) SOLD OUT!
