Pulmonaria 'Blue Ensign' commonly known as Lungwort, this is a spectacular, award winning perennial that holds the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Award of Garden Merit. It is widely considered the absolute gold standard for true blue shade loving plants. Unlike other lungworts that have spotted or variegated foliage, 'Blue Ensign' forms a neat, dense mound of solid, unspotted dark green leaves. In early spring, this lush base is topped with a heavy cluster of nodding, funnel shaped flowers in a shockingly deep, intense violet blue shade, making it a premier selection for illuminating dark woodland beds, damp borders, or under planting beneath mature shrubs.
