Herbaceous Perennial
A hardy species of low-growing, clump-forming perennial to around 20cm in height, with sprawling, hairy stems and green, vine-like toothed, hairy leaves. Clusters of pale, lavender-blue, flared, trumpet-shaped flowers, crinkled around the petal edges, contain blue pollen that offers a source of nectar for bees and butterflies, and appear from May until August. A great choice for woodland planting and drought and shade-tolerant once established, although the plants may become dormant and lose their leaves in these conditions
