Notes
'Mr. Morse' Siberian bugloss (Brunnera macrophylla 'Mr. Morse') is a perennial for shade gardens, woodland gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Clouds of white flowers with yellow centers appear in spring above heart-shaped, fuzzy leaves with silver overlay. Bees visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Mini Skirt hosta, Paul Scherer tulip, and Little Hottie panicle hydrangea.
