Opal is lovely 💙

Gorgeous colour 🩵🩵🩵

So pretty 💙💙

Interesting leaves too by the looks of it

@hkyfvr @pelly @juliesgarden @johnnyuk thanks all 😊 not as much colour variation this year but it had so many more flowers than previous years 😋

@italydiva they’re very sweet little leaves 🥰 not as densely patterned as some varieties either

Very welcome. I noticed the one I bought just has the blue flowers. I thought I was buying the blue and pink ones. I saw that one today. May have to get another one. 😉

@hkyfvr the blue ones are so beautiful though 💙 but great excuse to add another to your collection 😉

Like I need an excuse 😂

@hkyfvr 😆😆😆

@columbiariver it’s perfectly named when it colours up properly. It’s a bit monotone this year 😜

Flowers aren’t lasting long this year 😕 #pulmonaria #lungwort #pulmonaria-opal #pulmonaria-ocupol

Love the foliage and pretty blue blooms 💚💙

#trueblue

@hkyfvr @emch thank you both 😃 it’s a lovely little plant that looks great even without flowers. But the colour of those tiny little blooms is gorgeous 😍 well named 😛

So welcome. Opal is a perfect name. 💙

@hkyfvr especially when the flowers are just starting because they’re pale blue & pale pink. I missed that stage this year 🙄

Oh well. They look good all blue. With the weird wild weather we are having I may miss my flowers altogether 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤣

@hkyfvr I hope not. You deserve a spring after all the awful weather you’ve had to endure 😞

Thanks Kerry. I live in a cold country so I take what the weather dishes out. Things will get better and I will be complaining about the heat soon. 😂🤣

We have this at work, and you’re right in that the flower colour is stunning 👌🏼

I forgot to tell you, I had success with the seeds of these you sent. I have one plant which is just starting to flower 😊👍

@richard.spicer.7906 it really does have a glow to it like an opal 😛 adorable foliage too 😍

In love 😍😍😍 #pulmonaria #lungwort #pulmonaria-opal #pulmonaria-ocupol

I need to find mine, I think it's hidden under another plant. I shall add that to today's jobs. Its too beautiful 😍

@DeborahBanks hope you found it cos the flowers are even more beautiful in person 😍 you have so many plants that it must be hard remembering where they all are 🤣

You got a whole bunch of new stuff! These are shade lovers aren't they?

Beautiful! ❤️😭😭

@lesliecole49 a whole newly done front garden to fill so been trying to find cheap plants with a long season of interest 😜 low maintenance is top priority 🤣 these are shade plants. Almost half my front garden is in shade

@PoppyBloom thanks Blue 😁

@gjones they’re so detailed aren’t they 😍 always interesting to look at no matter the season 💚

Are these perennial?

@heatherdirtyhands they are 😊 and mostly evergreen too 💚 great little plants, even just for the foliage

Would they be ok in my zone I believe 6b?was wondering if I should take it in or if it would even live inside

@heatherdirtyhands it looks like they’d be fine outside in your zone 😁 not sure about growing them indoors as they flower in spring so think they may need the cold to get them going

Yeah I was thinking about leaving it outside was just scared of losing it u know. First time having one. I love the leaves so much and dont care too much about the flowers but considering I dont have much room inside I may let it go and see how it fares.

@heatherdirtyhands they’re well worth trying 😁 the leaves are amazing, definitely catch your eye. Hope you can find one to add to your garden 💚
