Notes

'Raspberry Splash' pulmonaria (Pulmonaria 'Raspberry Splash') is a perennial for shade gardens, woodlands, ground cover, and borders. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist, loamy, clay, or chalky soil. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Raspberry red flowers open from early to late spring. Bees and hummingbirds visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Solomon's seal, Green Spice coral bells, and Cinnamon fern.
