Pulmonaria longifolia 'E.B. Anderson' - 2026

Pulmonaria longifolia 'E.B. Anderson' is a clump-forming perennial featuring narrow, lance-shaped green leaves and delicate pale blue, funnel-shaped flowers that bloom in early spring. The flowers appear above the foliage, providing early-season colour in borders, rockeries, or shaded containers. Its upright, slender habit adds structure to shady garden areas, while the compact growth makes it suitable for underplanting shrubs or along shaded pathways. This cultivar attracts early-season pollinators, adding ecological value while providing long-lasting ornamental interest.

It thrives in partial shade to full shade in moist, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Low-maintenance once established, it benefits from regular watering during dry spells. Although non-native to the UK, it is a reliable perennial for spring colour and textural interest in shade gardens.
