Pulmonaria 'High Contrast'

Pulmonaria ‘High Contrast’ is a compact perennial selected for dark green leaves densely marked with silver and spring flowers that open pink and mature blue. The flowers and foliage make a bright accent in a shaded border or woodland garden. ## Garden Use The [Terra Nova Nurseries profile](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/pulmonaria-high-contrast/) lists a mature size near 9 inches tall and 18 inches wide and places the plant in part shade to full shade. The [Morton Arboretum lungwort guide](https://mortonarb.org/plant-and-protect/trees-and-plants/lungwort-hybrids/) describes ‘High Contrast’ with pink and blue flowers and heavily silver-spotted leaves, and gives a height range of 6–12 inches. The foliage remains a feature after the spring display. ## Maintenance Plant in moist, well-drained soil in shade or filtered light. Water during dry weather, remove worn leaves as needed, and give the clump room to spread to its mature width.
