Brunnera macrophylla 'Looking Glass'

Siberian Bugloss 'Looking Glass'

These hardy, herbaceous perennials make excellent ground cover. They have attractive, coarse, heart-shaped leaves in spring with sprays of small blue or white flowers carried on wiry stems. They thrive in all but dense shade. ‘Looking Glass’ has shaped leaves with silvery "frosting", and sky-blue Forget-Me-Knot - like flowers above the foliage in Spring.
