Plant Features

Brunnera macrophylla Queen of Hearts is a true gem for shady spots, with its striking silver foliage and delicate, baby blue blooms. The heart-shaped leaves are elegantly covered in silver, with thin dark green veins that create a stunning contrast. Come spring, dainty clusters of blue flowers emerge, offering a beautiful and subtle bloom show above the foliage.

This shade-loving perennial is more than just a pretty face—it’s also low-maintenance and perfect for garden borders, woodland gardens, or container planting. Queen of Hearts forms a neat mound, making it a lovely groundcover that doesn’t spread too aggressively. It’s a perfect companion for other shade perennials, adding texture and beauty wherever it's planted.

Like all Brunnera varieties, Queen of Hearts is grown without harmful pesticides, making it safe for your garden and the environment.
