Description
6-12” tall x 12-24” wide. Silvery, heart-shaped leaves are strongly veined and marginated with deep green, making ‘Sea Heart’ an absolute must for shady to part-shade gardens! The delicate, abundant pink-to-blue flowers appear in early spring held just above the gorgeous foliage; but when they fade you’ll hardly notice as this workhorse perennial stays beautiful well into autumn. Perfect for woodland gardens and part-shade environments, ‘Sea Heart’ can also tolerate dry-shade conditions, although it is at its best in moist shady conditions. As it is rarely touched by deer, consider using it as a bright, clumping ground cover in shady, edge-of-woodland or remote gardens. Or use it as a stunning foliage accent in patio or deck containers that receive morning sun only. Gorgeous paired with native ferns, ‘Sea Heart’ is a versatile plant that will teach you to love your shade garden!
