Pulmonaria, commonly known as lungwort, is a shade-loving perennial valued for its attractive spotted or mottled foliage and clusters of early-season blooms in shades of blue, pink, and purple. Thriving in moist, well-drained soil with partial to full shade, lungwort adds vibrant color and interesting texture to woodland gardens, shaded borders, and perennial beds. A reliable and low-maintenance choice, Pulmonaria brings early spring interest and long-lasting foliage appeal to shady landscapes.
