Tell Me More...
Known for its striking foliage and delicate blooms, Brunnera macrophylla ‘Blue Ocean’ really stands out as a stunning member of the Forget-me-not family. Resembling a hosta, its large, heart-shaped leaves are vibrant green with prominent silvery veins, creating a shimmering effect that catches the light. Stunning clusters of small, bright blue flowers emerge in mid-spring, contrasting beautifully against the foliage. Ideal for shady or partially shaded areas, Brunnera macrophylla 'Blue Ocean' thrives in moist, well-drained soil and can tolerate all soil types. It forms dense clumps over time, making it an excellent groundcover choice under trees or alongside borders. Low-maintenance and resistant to pests and diseases, this hardy (H6) perennial is beloved by gardeners for its reliability and ornamental appeal throughout the growing season. Achieves a height of 30-45cm and spread of 30-40cm.
