Pulmonaria (Lungwort) for Sale
Pulmonaria, or lungwort, is one of the earliest and most reliable perennials for shade, producing pretty clusters of pink and blue flowers from late winter into spring when little else is in bloom. Its attractive silver-spotted foliage carries on bringing interest long after flowering, and it is a valuable early nectar source for bees. At Grasslands Nursery we grow Pulmonaria for sale, all UK-grown and available to order online.
