Pulmonaria 'Blue Ensign' is a striking Lungwort with clear blue flowers that appear in large clusters from March to May. ‘Blue Ensign’ has unusually broad foliage, unspotted and more refined, creating low spreading clumps that form an attractive ground cover. Awarded an RHS AGM, this superb variety attracts pollinating insects with its nectar rich blooms, and is ideal for bringing spring colour to woodland areas and shaded borders. Height: 35cm (14"). Spread: 45cm (18").

Culinary information: The leaves can be eaten raw or cooked and added to salads, or used as a potherb. The plant is an ingredient of the drink Vermouth. For more details about edible flowers click here.

Van Meuwen strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
