Plant description
The heart-shaped leaves of this low-growing perennial are so heavily patterned with silver, that only the veins and outer edges have retained their green colouring. Appearing each spring, this foliage is soon accompanied by sprays of small, rich blue flowers. A gorgeous groundcover for a partially shaded border, it can also be used to soften the edges of a pot.
