Description

Good perennial plants, very hardy, often stoloniferous, which quickly form beautiful dense mats in shade or in moist semi-shade, in a soil rich in humus, even clay.

A dwarf plant, and a groundcovering species, with very beautiful spikes of sky blue flowers streaked with dark blue, shorter than most. Very attractive when grown in a container in semi-shade, where the branches can gracefully cascade.
