Strikingly unusual and winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, the icy silver foliage of Brunnera macrophylla Jack Frost, a popular variety of Siberian Bugloss, is sure to add impact to any bed or border. Its expansive, heart-shaped leaves boast an intricate network of green veins which are starkly at odds with its fragile, finely stemmed lilac blooms, and it is this dramatic contrast which has secured Jack Frost's status as a favourite of the British gardener. Flowering in April and May, this perennial is not only attractive but also reliable with a strong resistance to pests, making it the perfect plant for the spring to early summer garden. Reaches a mature height of 40cm, first grade loose roots supplied.
